"Recent decades have seen the development and growth of youth work as a recognised and increasingly professionalised occupation in Australia. This has occurred despite the diminished profile of 'youth affairs' under conservative governments, and persistent funding crises at the project and peak body levels. As the political pendulum swings once again in favour of the youth field, it is expected that greater resources and heightened expectations will accrue to youth work as a practice. The book considers key issues surrounding youth work as a career and a profession. It delves into the practical skills and knowledge needed by individuals as they undertake work in the youth field. It highlights the ideological or philosophical universe within which workers operate, and the more mundane aspects of being a worker in a field not noted for extravagant funding"--Australian Policy Online website.

This volume critically examines ’subculture’ in a variety of Australian contexts, exploring the ways in which the terrain of youth cultures and subcultures has changed over the past two decades and considering whether ’subculture’ still works as a viable conceptual framework for studying youth culture. Richly illustrated with concrete case studies, the book is thematically organised into four sections addressing i) theoretical concerns and global debates over the continued usefulness of subculture as a concept; ii) the important place of ’belonging’ in subcultural experience and the ways in which belonging is played out across an array of youth cultures; iii) the gendered experiences of young men and women and their ways of navigating subcultural participation; and iv) the ethical and methodological considerations that arise in relation to researching and teaching youth culture and subculture. Bringing together the latest interdisciplinary research to combine theoretical considerations with recent empirical studies of subcultural experience, Youth Cultures and Subcultures will appeal to scholars and students across the social sciences.

This book takes a global perspective to address the concept of belonging in youth studies, interrogating its emergence as a reoccurring theme in the literature and elucidating its benefits and shortcomings. While belonging offers new alignments across previously divergent approaches to youth studies, its pervasiveness in the field has led to criticism that it means both everything and nothing and thus requires deeper analysis to be of enduring value. The authors do this work to provide an accessible, scholarly account of how youth studies uses belonging by focusing on transitions, participation, citizenship and mobility to address its theoretical and historical underpinnings and its prevalence in youth policy and research.

"The cultural universe of youth is dynamic, complex and exciting. Australian Youth Subcultures provides a new dimension on various aspects of contemporary youth cultures and subcultures. The book explores the activities, attitudes, behaviours, images and experiences of young Australian people from widely diverse social backgrounds and personal circumstances. The focus of the book is on everyday activities and life stories of young people as they negotiate their identities, their leisure time, their sexuality and their multiple places in society. From the streets to musical beats, grrrl power to detention centres, Australian Youth Subcultures provides a fascinating insight into the margins and mainstreams of youth culture today." - back cover.

The Commonwealth Youth Bureau (then in the Commonwealth Department of Education, Training and Youth Affairs) contracted the Youth Research Centre to conduct a three-year study of a sample of young participants in State Government Sponsored Youth Development Programs. These programs operated in several states and involve young people (usually through schools) in activities and training with community and service organisations. In the Centre's research, thirty young program participants in each of Victoria (in the Victorian Youth Development Program), South Australia (in the Activ8 Premier's Youth Challenge) and Western Australia (in Cadets WA) were interviewed several times during their involvement and after they finish these programs. The research attempted to learn about the expectations and experiences of young people in Youth Development Programs, and about the impact of these programs on their lives. In 2001, the research was in its 'set-up' phase, with instruments developed and approved, schools selected and some base-line information collected through interviews with students before they entered the programs. In 2002, interviews were undertaken in 12 schools with 60 young people. In 2003, the sample of schools was expanded to 18 (six in each state).
