En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the experiences of young activists and homeless youth across five liberal democracies, the book explores how shared political histories and neoliberal ideologies create barriers to civic participation. Jacqueline Kennelly argues that current inequalities hinder meaningful engagement in democratic processes, leading to a disconnect between knowledge and action. She critiques the notion of liberal democracy as a means of maintaining social divisions and proposes strategies to bridge these gaps, aiming to achieve the equality that remains elusive in practice.
