- More about Waithood: Gender, Education, and Global Delays in Marriage and Childbearing
Waithood is a period of extended adolescence and delayed adulthood marked by youth waiting for stable employment and marriage, requiring recognition of new gender and family roles. Contributors from various world areas explore this phenomenon through ethnographic studies.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 424 pages
Publication date: 13 January 2023
Publisher: Berghahn Books
The concept of "Waithood" was introduced by political scientist Diane Singerman to depict the lengthening duration between adolescence and full adulthood as young individuals navigate the transition to stable employment and marriage. In this volume, contributors utilize the waithood concept as a framework for in-depth ethnographic investigations of "youth in waiting" from diverse global regions, including the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the United States. Their findings reveal that, whether voluntary or involuntary, youth waithood necessitates the acknowledgment of novel gender and family roles.
