Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped life for all in countless ways. For young people, the pandemic accelerated the digitalization of school education and upended relations with peers, parents, and society as a whole. In this paper, we look beyond these immediate effects to explore how pandemic experiences, feelings, and thoughts suggest profound shifts in young people's perspectives on and orientations towards the future. Our research comprises parallel qualitative research with young people aged 15-19 in Denmark and Australia. Drawing on a posthumanist account of the world as entanglements of multiple human and non-human agencies and inspired by Donna Haraway's admonition to stay with the trouble of the world, we discuss how species meet as the coronavirus makes kin with the young people and how the young people's perspectives on the future become with the pandemic. That is, what intimations of worldings and reworldings can be glimpsed as young people shared their changed perspectives on priorities related to the meaning of life and the sustainability of the (more-than-) human condition from the midst of the pandemic.

“重拾世界”:探索新冠肺炎期间丹麦和澳大利亚青年对未来的看法

2019冠状病毒病大流行以无数方式重塑了所有人的生活。对于年轻人来说，疫情加速了学校教育的数字化，并颠覆了他们与同龄人、父母和整个社会的关系。在本文中，我们超越了这些直接影响，探讨了大流行的经历、感受和思想如何表明年轻人对未来的看法和取向发生了深刻变化。我们的研究包括对丹麦和澳大利亚15-19岁年轻人的平行定性研究。借鉴后人类主义对世界的描述，将世界视为多种人类和非人类机构的纠缠，并受到唐娜·哈拉威(Donna Haraway)告诫我们要与世界的麻烦保持联系的启发，我们讨论了随着冠状病毒与年轻人成为亲戚，物种如何相遇，以及年轻人对未来的看法如何随着大流行而改变。也就是说，当年轻人分享他们对与生命意义和(超过)人类状况的可持续性有关的优先事项的看法发生变化时，可以瞥见世界和再世界的暗示。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c) 2023 APA，版权所有)

期刊介绍： Journal of Youth Studies is an international scholarly journal devoted to a theoretical and empirical understanding of young people"s experiences and life contexts. Over the last decade, changing socio-economic circumstances have had important implications for young people: new opportunities have been created, but the risks of marginalisation and exclusion have also become significant. This is the background against which Journal of Youth Studies has been launched, with the aim of becoming the key multidisciplinary journal for academics with interests relating to youth and adolescence.
