Making use of examples from sources including scientific and media statements, youth policy programmes, and strategies at international (European) and local (Polish) levels, the author shows how this concept of youth supports processes of social regulation and contributes to the implementation of political goals as specific responses to issues such as radicalization and violence, unemployment, and economic crisis. This book will be of interest not only to scholars of discourse and youth studies, but also to all post-Foucauldian researchers with an interest in going beyond simple 'applicationism'. aSemantics aDiscourse analysis 2ddccBK 00104070aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2022-03-09e7g4634.51l0o305.235 OST-Rp52107r2022-03-10 00:00:00v6348.65w2022-03-10yBK
