Journal of Youth Studies

中文简介

《青年研究杂志》是一份国际性学术期刊，致力于从理论和实证的角度理解年轻人的经历和生活背景。迅速变化的社会经济环境对年轻人具有重要的影响:创造了新的机会，但不平等和边缘化现象增加并以新的形式出现。《青年研究杂志》创办于1998年，是面向青年和青年成人期学者的领先多学科期刊。作为该领域的领先期刊，《青年研究期刊》汇集了世界各地从事不同学科研究的社会科学家。这些学科包括社会学、教育学、社会政策、文化研究、政治学、经济学、人类学、犯罪学和社会地理学。我们的杂志不是一本关于青少年心理学的杂志，但是我们确实接受一些从批判心理学角度出发的论文。我们发表的论文调查年轻人的生活在一系列的环境中(如教育、家庭、劳动力市场)的众多研究主题(如文化、身份、政治、公民、消费、休闲、媒体、犯罪等)不愿杂志上发表论文,顺便用年轻人为研究样本,或者重复过时,狭窄或规范性方法理解年轻人的生活。虽然这个范围不能按时间顺序来定义，但该杂志的核心兴趣在于十几岁和二十几岁的年轻人。我们对所有方法方法持开放态度。除了以经验为基础、理论见多识广的论文外，我们还欢迎主要是概念性的贡献，尤其是如果它们能增加该领域当代知识分子的辩论的话。《青年研究杂志》发表的论文致力于解决青年政策和实践问题，但这些论文必须超越方案报告和评价，对国际读者具有明确的价值。除了分析年轻人不断变化的情况、经历和机会外，该杂志还鼓励发表论文，以批判性的视角看待社会、经济和政治进程以及制度如何塑造年轻人的意义，以及对年轻人的描述。

英文简介

Journal of Youth Studies is an international scholarly journal devoted to the theoretical and empirical understanding of young people’s experiences and life contexts. Rapidly changing socio-economic circumstances have important implications for young people: new opportunities have been created but inequality and marginalisation have increased and taken new forms. Launched in 1998, the Journal of Youth Studies has established itself as the leading multidisciplinary journal for academics who are interested in youth and young adulthood.As the leading journal in the field, the Journal of Youth Studies brings together social scientists from all regions of the world and working in a range of disciplines. These include sociology, education, social policy, cultural studies, political science, economics, anthropology, criminology and social geography. Ours is not a journal of adolescent psychology but we do accept papers that take a critical psychological perspective.The papers we publish investigate young people’s lives in a range of contexts (such as education, the family, the labour market) and in respect of numerous research themes (such as sub-culture, identity, politics, citizenship, consumption, leisure, media, crime etc.) The Journal does not wish to publish papers that incidentally have used young people as the research sample or that repeat dated, narrow or normative approaches to understanding young people’s lives. Although the scope cannot be defined chronologically, the core interest of the Journal is on young people in their teens and twenties.We are open to all methodological approaches. As well as empirically based, theoretically informed papers we also welcome contributions that are primarily conceptual, particularly if they add to contemporary intellectual debates in the field. The Journal of Youth Studies publishes papers that grapple with questions of youth policy and practice but these must go beyond programme reports and evaluations and have clear value for an international readership. As well as analyses of the changing situations, experiences and opportunities of young people, the Journal encourages papers that take a critical perspective on the way that social, economic and political processes and institutions shape the meaning of, and narratives about, youth.
