About The Book
Developmental Tasks in Adolescence explores adolescent development in Europe, a topic that has received limited academic focus in recent years. The book applies socialisation theory to four key developmental tasks of life: Qualifying, Bonding, Consumption, and Participation. Mastering these tasks is argued to be essential for personal individuation and social integration, which are prerequisites for forming self-identity.
In modern developed societies, adolescence spans about 15 years on average, with earlier onset of puberty and delayed transition to adulthood. The book highlights how adolescents’ handling of everyday life tasks sets patterns for later life stages amid the uncertainties and ambiguities typical of contemporary democratic societies.
This sociological approach by Hurrelmann and Quenzel is valuable for students and academics in psychology, sociology, education, social work, youth studies, and related professional training courses.
