Summary

The disciplinary edge of youth work with its rules, diagnostic categories, therapies, spaces of containment/confinement, and over-coded descriptions of youth has constructed edifices of capture which constantly seem to overtake and render impotent any effort to crack the surface. At the same time, the impetus towards revolutionary youth work can also be seen as a constant dynamic force that may ebb and flow but never disappears or is entirely defeated. Such impetus generates a range of antihegemonic ideological constructions, which are generated by the historical epoch, particular material conditions, and the mode of production. This impetus resides outside of reactive considerations of dominant cultural formations and within subjectivities formed alternatively to such constructions as youth subculture or radical youth work.
