The book adopts a critical postmodern perspective to explore this reality and propose ways of engaging with street-frequenting young people. </p><p> </p><p>Candidly written, <i>Street-Frequenting Young People in Fiji </i>identifies issues that provoke the conscience of Fijian hierarchy and its leaders. It will appeal to students and scholars across a range of disciplines- including sociology, childhood and youth studies, and social work- as well as practitioners and policy analysts.</p>
