Description

Depending on their dynamics, neighbourhoods may serve to contain or exacerbate youth violence.

This book uses fascinating ethnographic and interview data to explore the disappearance of localized relationships in a South London housing estate.

Through a comparative analysis of the experiences of different generations, James Alexander considers the impact of both wider socio-economic developments and the gradual move from neighbourly to professional support for young people. As well as evaluating the effectiveness of youth work programmes, he considers how the actions of neighbours and the decisions of policymakers influence how supported young people feel and, consequently, their vulnerability to criminal influences.
