Youth culture : A Sociological Analysis
Keywords:
age criterion, institution, behavioral ideas, transitional phaseAbstract
At the heart of sociological perspective lies the question of how people are influenced by their society. Societies are formed by group of people at varied levels of territory, identifying themselves in form of different ideas, customs, and behaviors. One such group in the sociological construct is known as ‘Youth,’ which operates multitudinously as an individual young person, an attitude of being, an age criterion, and an institution. Youth is often characterized as a different group due to its diversity of forms, genres, and behavioral ideas owing to a transitional phase of age. They transform and act as a complex symbolic system, which complicates the study of sociocultural phenomenon and demands a deeper inspection of this age group.
