"It is against such expansive theoretical terrain that Armano, Bove and Murgia’s edited volume sets out to trace the contours and expand on current conceptualisations. Suitably subtitled Subjectivities and Resistance: An Introduction, the volume considers the structural context of precarious work, yet goes beyond and engages with the grainy, casual and colloquial body of precarious narratives that emerge from the grass-roots and are in danger of being overlooked. The book is divided into three parts, investigating the precarious experience on three different levels and from three different standpoints."Constantine Manolchev, University of Exeter Business School, UK, Work, employment and society Journal
"Angela Mitropoulos’s final, summary chapter is particularly noteworthy as it connects the precarity of labour market structures with the precariousness of existence in a mosaic of markets, state policy, labour valorisation and regulative order. It restates the continued scope for individual resistance in the face of precarious odds, reminding that the volume is equally concerned with past trends, and the direction of future travel."The British Sociological Association Journal

Oration And Poem Delivered Before The Class Of 1868

‘Struggle’ is one of those over-used words we use to evoke a political ‘feel’ to analysis. In Youth, Class and Everyday Struggles, however, Steven Threadgold takes the idea of struggle seriously, and develops a multi-layered understanding of struggle to provide an exciting and insightful analysis of the challenges young people negotiate in everyday life. Drawing together a thoughtful reading of Bourdieu through theories of affect, risk and reflexivity, Threadgold shows that struggle is fundamental to the constitution of young people’s classed and gendered existence in a world shaped by precarity. Through an examination of hipsters, 'bogans' and DIY music, the book argues not only that there are modalities and temporalities to struggle, but that struggle is creative and mundane, agentic and oppressive. It offers an original and thought-provoking contribution to the field of youth studies.
Greg Noble, Professor,Institute for Culture and Society, Western Sydney University, Australia
A smart, sensitive and sophisticated analysis of how youth figures in the ways class is produced and contested in conditions of precarity. Centring the concept of struggle, Threadgold incisively addresses the cultural politics and quotidian material realities of new and old class relations through careful attention to the everyday lives of young people. This book is an important contribution to the theorisation of social class today, and a shining example of truly generative scholarship at the intersection of youth transitions and youth cultures research.​
Anita Harris, Research Professor, Alfred Deakin Institute for Citizenship and Globalisation, Faculty of Arts & Education, Deakin University, Australia

This is an excellent book that pushes the boundaries of theorising in youth studies to another level. By using the notion of ‘struggle’ and other Bourdieusian concepts, Steve Threadgold is able to create a more nuanced understanding of the contemporary forms of class social reproduction and youth reflexivity. As such this book is a must readfor all students and scholars interested in the youth question.
Alan France, Professor of Sociology, University of Auckland, New Zealand
Youth, Class and Everyday Struggles is a masterfully researched and compellingly written book. Casting an expert eye over an increasingly diverse field, Threadgold has produced a much needed synthesis of key ideas relating to youth cultures and youth transitions that will be of seminal value to both experienced youth researchers and students in search of a critical introduction to youth studies.
