Youth Resilience And Culture

“Drawing on academic and practical expertise, Phippen and Street offer a much needed youth-centered and evidence-based approach to safeguarding young people online. Constructive and accessible, but upfront and unapologetic about the need to rethink taken-for-granted assumptions about youth, digital media and risk, this book is required reading for those working in the field. The book deftly builds a case for reform to policy and practice, and presents a workable and practical model for doing so.”

‘This is an eye-opening analysis that investigates alarmism on the one hand, and a neglect of young people’s problems on the other. There is much to learn from here for all of us who are interested in the complex relationships between society, culture and mental life.’
—Svend Brinkmann, Aalborg University, Denmark
