Plates 1.1 and 1.2 portray very contrasting images of contemporary youth.The first captures the stereotypical image of youth as out to have a goodtime, carefree and perhaps rebellious. The second suggests a very differentversion of what it means to be young—reflecting work, a concern forothers, respect for adults and perhaps a touch of ‘innocence’. It is ourintention in bringing this collection together to explore the diversity inyoung people’s lives in order to place youth on the geographical map andto demonstrate youth’s relevance to a range of geographical debates.
