Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
This book, now in its second edition, examines youth citizenship and activism in the twenty-first century. When young people are encouraged to enact ‘active citizenship’ through education and popular culture, and yet also risk arrest when engaged in certain forms of dissent, how do we account for the contradiction? Kennelly gets to the center of these issues as she explores the challenges of being young and politically engaged. In the new edition, she brings her original rich ethnography of young activists organizing across Canada into conversation with the past decade's burgeoning literature on youth activism and the major youth-led movements that have occurred since the first edition was published, including Black Lives Matter and Student Climate Strikes. The book also features a foreword written by prominent scholar of democratic education Dr. Joel Westheimer, as well as an afterword penned by emerging scholar and young activist Dr. Cihan Erdal.
