Although not all participants in that session could join in the edited publication, their papers at that session and our discussions of all our papers over meals and emails enriched our understanding of how anthropologists can approach the study of adulthood."--Page vii. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 Elusive adulthoods : introduction / Deborah Durham -- The predicament of adulthood in Botswana / Jacqueline Solway - - Educated youth and the search for adulthood in post-war Sri Lanka / Dhana Hughes -- Learning to wait : schooling and the instability of adulthood for young men in Uganda / Claire Elisabeth Dungey and Lotte Meinert -- Adulthood and youth in a rapidly urbanizing Chinese county / Andrew B.

Young people across the globe, burdened with debt and unsatisfactory job prospects, are struggling to establish households, marry, and, perhaps most significantly, "feel" grown up. For them, achievement of adulthood has become increasingly elusive. Elusive Adulthoods poses the question "What is adulthood?" and examines how the field of anthropology has come to overlook this meaningful life transition. Through diverse case studies, contributors explore a variety of means by which adulthood can be recognized, such as negotiated relationships with others and as a form of upward class mobility. Contributors also grapple with the difficulties that come from a sense of having missed full adulthood - perhaps due to rapid social change or reluctance to embrace the necessary subordination to job and family. In each case, changing political and economic factors form the background for generational experiences and understandings of what it means to reach adulthood as globalization dictates changes to traditional rites of passage. -- from back cover. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Young adults|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85149273|xEconomic conditions|y21st century|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002011408|vCongresses. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 650 0 Young adults|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85149273|xSocial conditions|y21st century|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008643|vCongresses. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 650 0 Adulthood|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85001056|vCongresses.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001533 650 0 Maturation (Psychology)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85082269 650 7 Young adults|xEconomic conditions.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1183206 650 7 Young adults.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1183198 650 7 Young adults|xSocial conditions.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1183229 650 7 Adulthood.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/797400 650 7 Maturation (Psychology)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1012494 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Conference papers and proceedings.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1423772 655 7 Conference papers and proceedings.|2lcgft|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026068 700 1 Durham, Deborah Lynn,|d1958-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2006021624|eeditor. 700 1 Solway, Jacqueline S.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n84144793|eeditor. 710 2 American Anthropological Association.|bAnnual Meeting |n(112th :|d2013 :|cChicago, Ill.),|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2017156795|ecreator. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tElusive adulthoods.|dBloomington, Indiana, USA : Indiana University Press, [2017] |z9780253029737|w(DLC) 2017297083|w(OCoLC)967195605 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1854381|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
