Bringing Youth Back In: Youth Political Participation and Representation in the 21st Century

Abstract

This panel highlights research aimed at remedying the decline in youth’s participation in formal politics. Scholarship concerning youth’s decline in participation has often looked to civic education as an important socialization tool. The papers included in this panel seek to investigate the role of civic education even further by drawing attention to issues such as, but not limited to: - Intersectionality in civic education (gender, race/ethnicity, class) - Migrant belonging and citizenship attitudes - Educational autonomy
