Critical perspectives on youth
Inhalt:
The subject of intense media scrutiny, young men and women in the Islamic Republic of Iran have long been characterized as walking rebels - a frustrated, alienated generation devoid of hope and prone to oppositional practices. 'Coming of Age in Iran' challenges these homogenizing depictions through vivid ethnographic portraits of a group of resilient lower-class youth in Iran: the face-savers. Through participant observation and interviews, the text reveals how conformism to moral norms becomes these young people's ticket to social mobility.
