Academic research and bibliography

Task #2 is to pull this information together in an updated blog posting of all your notes and quotes so far INCLUDING a complete bibliography of your research so far. Make sure you include the following:
  • Author-Year-Title-Place-Publisher info;
  • Quotes (+ Page References) from the book that can be linked to your study;
  • A short explanation of each one explaining how it is relevant to you/your topic.
  • Finally, post up on your blog a Complete Bibliography (so far) to include ALL the books you currently have quotes from. It MUST contain at least TEN different academic books or journalsas well as all your online and Media Magazine sources.
  • Note: your FINAL bibliography will be much more extensivethan this - we are simply looking for a minimum of 10 academic sources from your research so far.

"Glasgow has twice as many people out of work as the national average." 


"More than half of the city's children live in poverty." 

This quote supports my case study as the youth are seen as troubled and are stereotyped by classes higher than them. The quote tells us more than half of the city's children live in poverty and when they grow up to become teenagers and young adults they're seen to be dangerous and educated.

"But David Cameron was more interested in reinforcing middle-class predjudice than in boosting the Tory vote in an unwinnable seat"


"We if these things---obesity, alcohol abuse, drug addiction---are purely external events, like a plague, or bad weather."

"The idea that Britain and other late capitalist societies are witnessing the rise of an 'underclass' of people at the bottom of the social heap"


This is relevant to my case study as I am looking at the representation of  the youth in Britain. The quote above the amount of

"Britain is constantly engaged in debates about race, racism and national identity."

This supports my case study as I'll be looking at the way the youth are represented in Britain.

"These people frowned on the defective people and their actions, and agreed that the state should punish them as harshly as possible."


"From 2,019 adults aged 18+ 88 per cent believed that the sentences on the 'rioters' and 'looters' were not tough enough, two thirds (69 per cent) felt that organized 'gangs' were the cause of unrest"



page 11

"According to David Cameron, the English 'rioter' and 'looter' are of the same breed; namely of the feral underclass type. These people, as Cameron would have it, are foreign to the hard-working, regular citizen and it is through poor life choices and like of meritocratic initiative that they find themselves clinging to the margin of society."

The reason I've picked this quote is because this comes from a politician point of view. Also its suggested that for those who joined the riots are foreign to the hard working lifestyle and the youth are the ones who are making poor life choices.

"An ethnographic research tradition originating at University of Chicago became famous for its attempts to explain deviant activities such as drug taking, petty crime and gang membership as collective normative behavior associated with distinct urban social regions, each with their pwn divergent more codes (park 1925)."

"Since 2000 we have seen unprecedented levels of unrest in London. The capital has become the battleground for a host of new demands and new ideological standpoints, so much so that protesters and authority alike have had to invent new tactics to protest was relativity rare."
