Editorial Reviews
Review
“Contesting the thesis that ‘ethnic minority young people’ have become politically apathetic and conversely are prone to violent extremism, O’Toole and Gale offer insight into minoritised young people’s complex ‘grammars of political action’ and the socio-spatial relations in which their political subjectivities and activity are entangled.” – Rachel Rosen, Children’s Geographies, 13(4)
