Students will be required to explore and discuss regionally distinct yet similar youth cultural subgroups in a research paper. The purpose of this paper is to allow each student the opportunity to identify the historical, social, cultural and environmental aspects of one youth subgroup from a region outside of the United States and to then compare it to a similar subgroup from within the United States.
Compare and contrast the political climate of each region.
Describe the dominant culture in each country/region.
Compare and contrast the particular characteristics of each youth subgroup, such as dress, hairstyles, pop culture influences, and social activities.
Describe the patterns of behavior associated with each subgroup, within the context of the social dynamic in which they are situated.
Discuss the theoretical perspectives that explain societal responses to youth in each situation and how it shapes what is treated as deviant and delinquent behaviors among them.
