Shaping youth power for 21st century

Wordsworth has aptly said "child is the father of man". In fact it is the
youth, who are the future of a nation. And if the youth power is properly
managed, shaped and directed to right path, the future of the society and
nation will be safe and secure. Deviance of youth is caused due to
many
factors-social, economic and political. Growing unemployment,
directionless future prospects, indiscipline, corruption and nepotism in
public services and life, degrading socio-political milieu—all these lead to
youth unrest.
This book addresses many such issues, which are responsible for youth
unrest and juvenile delinquency. The major topics, given elaborate
treatment herein are-Growth of Agitation due to Youth Unrest; Indian
Society and Unemployment; Sociology of Juvenile Delingquency and
Disorganisation; Communication, Alcoholism and Communal Violence in
India; Terrorism and Crime in India, and Child Abuse, Labour and Drug
Abuse.
