Youth as Social Weathervanes: Building the Developmental Foundations for Political Pluralism with Catholic Participation

聽聽聽聽 This project will shed light on the role of youth development in the process of democratization, with a special focus on its role in building the foundations for political pluralism and on the question of how Catholic thought and institutional development provides a context for these processes. Because they are engaged in the process of their own identity development, youth function as social weathervanes to gauge the ways in which collective identity and political culture are shifting. This project will rely on reviews of existing research literature, and the project director鈥檚 prior data analysis, supplemented by secondary data analysis. The project will provide a basis for understanding youth involvement in the process of democratization, building upon the Catholic political analyses of John Courtney Murray and Bernard H盲ring.
