This article begins by examining current crises facing historically marginalized youth, which necessitate more critical approaches to youth development and empirical investigations into the challenges that young people face. This requires not only listening to their voices, but actively engaging them in investigations of and interventions into social problems that affect their lives. Researching with youth raises particular dilemmas, however. The authors discuss strategies, within three guiding principles, that they found effective in conducting participatory action research with marginalized youth for the purposes of social and educational transformation.
本文首先审视了历史上处于边缘地位的青年目前所面临的危机,这些危机使得有必要采取更具批判性的青年发展方法,并对年轻人面临的挑战进行实证研究。这不仅需要倾听他们的声音,还需要让他们积极参与对影响其生活的社会问题的调查和干预。然而,与青年一起开展研究也带来了特殊的困境。作者在三项指导原则内讨论了他们发现的对边缘化青年进行参与式行动研究以实现社会和教育变革有效的策略。
