{"product_id":"9781782382638","title":"Domesticating Youth: Youth Bulges and their Socio-political Implications in Tajikistan","description":"Ingram - \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Most of the Muslim societies of the world have entered a demographic transition from high to low fertility, and this process is accompanied by an increase in youth vis-à-vis other age groups. Political scientists and historians have debated whether such a “youth bulge” increases the potential for conflict or whether it represents a chance to accumulate wealth and push forward social and technological developments. This book introduces the discussion about youth bulge into social anthropology using Tajikistan, a post-Soviet country that experienced civil war in the 1990s, which is in the middle of such a demographic transition. Sophie Roche develops a social anthropological approach to analyze demographic and political dynamics, and suggests a new way of thinking about social change in youth bulge societies.","brand":"Berghahn Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47301058560240,"sku":"9781782382638","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781782382638_p0.jpg?v=1772500318","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781782382638","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
