Ten international academics and researchers contribute 12 papers exploring the impact of this merging and converging of cultures in the daily lives of youth. The studies analyze life practices and projects of children and young people in several societies, particularly in Europe and Canada, to understand issues of cultural belonging of young people today, and how youth routinely negotiate their position with peers from other cultural and socioeconomic contexts. The goal of the text is to encourage teachers, social workers, journalists, and the media to recognize and appreciate the diverse cultural perspectives and contributions of contemporary youth.
