Hazel V. Kraemer Youth and Culture: A Human-Development Approach Brooks / Cole Monterey, 1974. 678 pages paperback Language: English ISBN: 0818500891 EAN: 9780818500893 Product information PublisherBrooks/Cole Publishing Company (January 1, 1974) PREFACE Youth and Culture: A Iluman-Developmeni Approach is a collection of articles that can be used as either a supplementary or basic text for courses in psychology, education, sociology, human development, and political socializa-tion, all of which deal with adolescence and youth. The younger generation has always been a source of potential growth and change for mankind. During its adolescence and youth, each generation must deal with age-old problems in the unique context of its own position in history; each generation must make moral judgments, search for identity and selfhood, resolve the tensions of the generation gap, and balance idealism and practicality. How each generation handles these problems cumulatively affects the momentum and direction of social evolution. Youth's effect on culture is even greater today than it has been in the past due to several factors. First, our population is becoming increasingly younger. Approximately 50 percent of the population of the United States is under 25 years of age, and the emergent nations have a still younger population. Both the proportion and absolute numbers of adolescents are increasing. Sec-ond, although adolescence was not considered a distinct period of life before the industrial and technological revolutions of the nineteenth and twentieth cen-turies, today we recognize its significance as a developmental stage. Third, the young experience an environment more conducive to mutual understanding and cross-cultural communication than that of previous generations. How can we help adolescents and young adults to maximize their potential? A first step is to study them. This book takes a humanistic approach, which requires us to study the whole man from the perspective of many disci-plines, not fragment man by studying him through one discipline alone. In this respect, we must rriove counter to today's trend toward specialization; wentiust always keep the whole man in mind.
