Recenzii

Young people almost always play instrumental roles in social justice movements, and Melvin Delgado – easily among our most renowned scholars of youth and community – here makes yet another exceptional contribution to our understanding of the field, drawing upon empirical evidence in three contemporary movements in society.
-Dr Barry Checkoway, School of Social Work, University of Michigan
 
Using examples of civic engagement with diverse youth, Dr Melvin Delgado provides an innovative paradigm for environmentally focused social justice strategies aimed at promoting the engagement of urban youth in social activism and service learning.
-Dr Edgar Colon, Southern Connecticut State University
