Fleur Gabriel: Deconstructing Youth: Youth Discourses at the Limits of Sense

---

Deconstructing Youth: Youth Discourses at the Limits of Sense, by Fleur Gabriel, provides a compelling analytical account of the confounding presence that youth have in modern Western culture. The book is geared towards adults seeking to better understand the youth mind. Gabriel starts with a general approach to defining what youth is and how it is viewed and translated across multiple domains (such as parental/clinical and the media). In the later chapters, Gabriel turns to a more narrowly tailored approach drawing on specific case studies that depict ‘‘youth in action’’ in their most controversial and feared light. This includes examples from popular films that depict teen rebellion to a discourse of the columbine school shooting massacre that occurred in 1999. The book aims to add insight into the preexisting views of how contemporary youth is thought about in modern society. More importantly the book offers guidance and presents itself as a go-to manual for adults seeking to come to terms with the most alarming of youth activities. Gabriel’s approach to deconstructing youth offers compelling alternatives to the norm that are essential if the social hierarchy is to be maintained.
