Book Review: L. Pangrazio, Young People’s Literacies in the Digital Age: Continuities, Conflicts and Contradictions

Abstract

gangs in this book may also occur in other hemispheres of society. In other words, this kind of social phenomenon can happen elsewhere. Therefore, unearthing the root of the problem through mapping the cultural and political needs in the transitional period, as elaborated this book, is essential for governments, psychologists, sociologists, and urban planners. Overall, this book holds a vital moral message in the handling of juvenile delinquency: those deterrent models which force young people into a downward spiral could set off a new cycle of violence.
