| Description: | Malaysian Youth in The Global World: Issues and Challenges invites readers to examine the impact of globalization on our youth, looking at both the opportunities and problems that this changing world of innovation and technology presents. among the most important issues commonly faced by youth today involve education, economics, finance, consumerism, government and politics, the need for a sense of belonging and identity, mass media, delinquency and crime, as well as the environment, parental control and misbehaviour. Placing these issues within the context of globalization as experienced in Malaysia, individual chapters discuss how the role of youth as agents of change is impacted by globalization either, by advanced technology, open society as well as partly by ‘westernization’ vis-a-vis ‘modernization’. |
