Planning Community-Based Youth Services in Cork, Ireland: The Relevance of the Concepts "Youth" and "Community."

Gaetz, Stephen

Urban Anthropology and Studies of Cultural Systems and World Economic Development, v21 n1 p91-113 Spr 1992

Ethnographic data highlight the difficulties of monolithic classification by describing the experiences of three distinct categories of young people. (SLD)
