OverviewAgeism is prevalent in a great deal of current scholarship in the social sciences as scholars fault youth for being delinquent or politically apathetic. Researchers ignore young people's actual voices, despite their leadership in recent global uprisings, some of which unseated entrenched dictators. Neoliberalism must be exposed in its focus on youth sub-cultures and styles rather than economic barriers caused by growing inequality and rising youth unemployment rates. Ageism in Youth Studies also discusses the debate about Generation We or Me and if Millennials are narcissistic. Resources about global youth studies are included, along with the results of the author's surveys and interviews with over 4,000 young people from 88 countries.
