John Bynner · 1 Dec 2005

A whole flurry of new thinking and research about young people in the USA has been stimulated by Jeffery Arnett's theory of ‘Emerging Adulthood’.

Changes in the transition to adulthood in the UK and Canada: the role of structure and agency in emerging adulthood

I offer criticisms of the work of advocates of both terms. I also argue, however, that…

The research builds on previous Anglo-German and UK studies (Bynner & Roberts, 1991; Evans & Heinz, 1994; Evans et al…
