For the Springer series Perspectives on Children and Young People

CFP – Political Activism Across the Life-Course

Special Issue of Contemporary Social Science 

Papers are invited that explore how citizens participate in society. What leads them to participate, and what are the consequences of their participation?

Many social science disciplines have explored these issues including social psychologists, political scientists, sociologists and social anthropologists.  Central to these explorations is the question of how contemporary politics mark lives and how lives mark contemporary politics.

In particular, we welcome studies that examine political activism across the life-course. Continue reading CFP – Political Activism Across the Life-Course
