TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - The sociology of youth JO - Youth studies Australia A1 - Wyn, Johanna SP - 34 EP - 39 VL - 30 IS - 3 N2 - Johanna Wyn argues that there is a need for a sociological approach in relation to young people and family. The nexus between youth sociology and policy is a space where normative assumptions about the social meaning of age and the significance of inter-generational relationships need to be challenged. It is potentially a space into which the sociology of youth can contribute new thinking about the social meanings of age, the impact of social change on family relationships, generational consciousness and inter-generational relationships.
