The Modern Age: Turn-of-the-century American Culture and the Invention of Adolescence
Kent Baxter
Examines the discourses that have come to characterize adolescence and argues that commonplace views of adolescents as impulsive, conflicted, and rebellious are constructions inspired by broader cultural anxieties that characterized American society in early-20th-century America.
