I just lower my head and move on.” Spatialized inequality and the politics of teenage parenthood
Young parents are subjected to stigmatisation relating to intersecting aspects of their identity. • A powerful fear of social work referral was found to exist in this community of young parents. • Respondents identified specific challenges in caring for children in a deprived coastal town. • The ‘locale’ is significant in navigating stigma, creating a ‘spatialised subjectivity’. Mainstream policy and research have driven forward numerous interven…
Place-based understandings of ‘risk’ and ‘danger’ through a gendered lens – experiences of sexual violence in a deprived coastal town in the UK
Foregrounding the voices of young women in a deprived coastal context in the UK, this paper explores the intersection of place, class, gender and marginalisation. Drawing upon participatory qualitative research, the paper focuses on the following key themes: (1) how young women navigate perceptions of 'risk' through the everyday realities of the locale, (2) experiences of sexual violence and abuse (3) and finally, how normative depictions of 'ris…
Youth Beyond the City
Youth Beyond the City
The purpose of this book is to situate the place beyond the city as an epistemological vantage point for researching youth. Existing frameworks about young people privilege large urban centres or ‘global cities’ and create forms of marginality that are at once spatial and epistemological. This book interrogates and moves beyond these boundaries, turning the margins into a unique position for understanding youth and examining forms of difference w…

Qualitative Longitudinal Research
Qualitative longitudinal research (QLR) has grown in prominence and popularity since the 2007 themed section on the subject in this journal. This new themed section reflects on how QLR has been mobilised and made sense of in recent times. This article showcases QLR’s distinctive way of knowing and understanding the social world and how it can illuminate the processes through which policy can enhance, or indeed inhibit, the well-being of individua…
Wish you were here”? Geographies of exclusion
Within youth studies there is a growing body of research that pays attention to the importance of place in shaping young people’s identities, life opportunities and intergenerational relationships [Cuervo, H., and J. Wyn. 2014. “Reflections on the Use of Spatial and Relational Metaphors in Youth Studies.” Journal of Youth Studies 17 (7): 901–915; Farrugia, D. 2014. “Towards a Spatialised Youth Sociology: the Rural and the Urban in Times of Change…
Struggles and Silences
Despite ‘troubled lives’ increasingly coming under the gaze of (powerful) others, our understanding of the issues at hand seems somewhat detached from the experiences of those subject to policy intervention. Due to the deficit model that presents ‘problem families’ as pathological, the voices of those that experience multiple disadvantages and severe material hardship are rarely heard, or, at worst, silenced. Within the context of hardening publi…
I know I’m a good mum – no one can tell me different.” Young mothers negotiating a stigmatised identity through time
This article draws on qualitative longitudinal data obtained over a five-year period with young mothers. What makes the approach described in this article unique is how it views teenage pregnancy and motherhood as fluid and dynamic, moving away from the static snapshots that often depict young mothers as struggling (or ‘failing’) at one moment in time, to a more nuanced account that reflects their journeys into motherhood and the changes that occ…
Continuity, commitment and context
Sibling relationships are usually lifelong and reciprocal. They can assume particular significance when a brother or sister has a learning disability. Until recently, adult siblings of people with disabilities such as severe autism have been ignored by policy, practice and research. This qualitative study contributes to an emerging literature by exploring how adult siblings, who have a brother or sister with autism (plus learning disability) and …
