Drawing on the Past: Studies in the History of Community and Youth Work

Edited by Ruth Gilchrist, Tony Jeffs and Jean Spence

This is the third and final collection of essays relating to the history of community and youth work arising out of a series of conferences organised by the journal Youth & Policy, formerly published by the National Youth Agency.

The 18 chapters cover a diversity of subjects and places. Some tell the stories of events and people. Others consider the impact and relevance of organisations, movements and reports. Yet others are concerned with the value of historical understanding for contemporary community and youth work. Together they reveal a fascinating history and uncover a vast store of archives, many of which remain to be fully explored, documented and analysed.
