The Lament of a Broken Youth is a story that serves as allegory for the destructive nature of contemporary American politics, placed into the context of the world of The Three Warlocks. It is an exploration of the destructive nature of factionalism: when a person values the success of their community over the success of communication. The story is told chiefly from the perspective of Markusei Darkorh, the son of a tribal chieftain. Young and empathetic, Markusei's worldview is challenged when he takes an elven artist hostage. However, this hostage has connections to powerful people: warlocks powerful enough to destroy Markusei's tribe entirely. Will he be able to keep his hostage alive in the midst of a camp that wishes her dead? Will he be able to ransom her before warlocks discover her location and destroy everything that Markusei has ever loved? Find out in this tale, inspired by spaghetti westerns and Mongolian culture!

Some years ago, a remarkable manuscript long rumoured to exist was discovered: The Legend of Broken. It tells of a prosperous fortress city, Broken, where order reigns at the point of a sword - even as scheming factions secretly vie for control of the surrounding kingdom. Meanwhile, outside the city's granite walls, an industrious tribe of exiles known as the Bane forages for sustenance in the wilds of Davon Wood. At every turn, the lives of Broken's defenders and its would-be destroyers intertwine until secretly, and under pressure from their people, four leaders unite. Together, they hope to exact a ruinous revenge on Broken, ushering in a day of reckoning when the mighty walls will be breached forever in a triumph of science over superstition. Breathtakingly profound and compulsively readable, Caleb Carr's long-awaited new book is an action-packed and enthralling masterpiece.

Teens and emerging adults don't feel at home in the church because they are not fully included in the church body. How can congregations nurture young adults, welcome them as siblings into God's household, and empower them to become fully embedded contributors within and to their faith community? Integrating the latest research on adolescent faith and young adult ministry for the local church, this book presents a new way of thinking about youth ministry. Chap Clark offers today's youth leaders highly practical principles based on his extensive experience, showing how they can implement a sustainable youth ministry program in their local church. He presents the adoptive youth ministry model as a way to help congregations see youth ministry as a bridge to inclusion, participation, and contribution in the body of Christ. Clark's comprehensive plan for designing and implementing youth ministry shows churches how to intentionally welcome young people and create an environment where they belong.

I am hopeful that by publishing this short polemical book, I will open windows to the unseen reality of the need for educational, emotional and professional guidance. No one is born broken, life just conspires with the behavioral ignorance of its characters to create continuance of conditions that can be remedy if our political system and the performance overburden educational machine form a united front to resolve and change to a prosperous society. Our broken youth is the product of these anomalies and the dysfunctional families they come from. From the moments of birth, everything that happens in life to those under certain conditions is inevitable. We needed to experience what they experienced. Our youth don't know there are ways to self-discovery that could be accomplished, the mechanisms are in place; just never applied to its full potential. If applied, this self-discovery would eventually have a profound impact in their lives, altering its direction many times. This book will concentrate on the lost souls without direction, while chronicling the journey of self-discovery our youth could have. Even though I will use a variety of simple analogies to illustrate my position, these are just whispers of the true reality of where our youth comes from, with nowhere to go; their shadow follow them attempting to escape their darkness, and the complex moments of uncertainty that mark their path toward understanding of a situation they don't know how to decipher. Our present world is too abstract and will be more as science progresses, and society and labor markets restructure to a less labor intensive and efficient operating systems. Resolution seeking behavior is diminishing due to the abstract political and social changes manifested by the natural evolution of society. These changes are incomprehensible due to our underdeveloped notion of education. Our present global political and economic lack of progress, equally have had deep effect on the resolution seeking

Most youth who come in conflict with the law have experienced some form of trauma, yet many justice professionals are ill-equipped to deal with the effects trauma has on youth and instead reinforce a system that further traumatizes young offenders while ignoring the needs of victims. By taking a trauma-informed perspective, this text provides a much-needed alternative--one that allows for interventions based on principles of healing and restorative justice, rather than on punishment and risk assessment. In addition to providing a comprehensive historical overview of youth justice in Canada, Judah Oudshoorn addresses the context of youth offending by examining both individual trauma--including its emotional, cognitive, and behavioural effects--and collective trauma. The author tackles some of the most difficult problems facing youth justice today, especially the ongoing cycles of intergenerational trauma caused by the colonization of Indigenous peoples and patriarchal violence, and demonstrates how a trauma-informed approach to youth justice can work toward preventing crime and healing offenders, victims, and communities. Featuring a foreword written by Howard Zehr, case stories from the author's own work with victims and offenders, questions for reflection, and annotated lists of recommended readings, this engaging text is the perfect resource for college and university students in the field of youth justice.

Drawing on fine-grained ethnographies from Bissau, Chile, China, Egypt, Ecuador and Nepal, this volume explores how politically, religiously and (sub-)culturally inspired Utopias motivate youth in the Global South to imagine, enact and embody what was missing in the past and present. As a fluid age cohort and a social category between childhood and adulthood – and hence with tenuous links to the status quo – youth are variously described as ‘at risk’, as victims of precarious and unpredictable circumstances, or as agents of social change who embody the future. From this future-oriented generational perspective, youth are often mobilised to individually and collectively imagine, enact and embody Utopian futures as alternatives to reigning orders that moulded their subjectivities but simultaneously fail them. The contributions to this book look at how divergent Utopias inspire strategies, whereby young people come together in transient communities to ‘catch’ a fleeting future, cultivate alternative subjectivities and thus assume a sense of minimum control over their life trajectories, if only momentarily. As youth enact and embody their aspirations for the future in the present, this book will be of interest to those researching how utopian visions shape practices and subjectivities of youth in the present. This book was originally published as a special issue of Identities: Global Studies in Culture and Power.
