Young People's Time Work: Searching for Certainty in Uncertain Times—Introduction to the Special Section

The editors introduce the topic of young people's time work at the intersection of youth research and time studies. A large part of youth studies tends to analyze young people's development and transitions while reproducing the chrononormativites of the institutionalized life course. The concept of time work developed by Flaherty allows to address the multidimensionality of time experienced and lived by young people. An overview over the contributions of this special section is provided.
