Discourses of Anxiety over Childhood and Youth across Cultures
This book revolves around neoliberal notions governing children and youth – a trend that permeates and dominates contemporary perceptions of "the young."

This is followed by research on media discourses of children and their cultural practices in Norway, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, Serbia, Greece, and the US.
