Spotlighting the ?troubled teen? as a site ofpop cultural, medical, and governmental intervention, Chronic Youthtraces the teenager as a figure through which broad threats to the normativeorder have been negotiated and contained. Examining television, popular novels, science journalism, newmedia, and public policy, Julie Passanante Elman shows how the teenager becamea cultural touchstone for shifting notions of able-bodiedness,heteronormativity, and neoliberalism in the late twentieth century. By the late1970s, media industries as well as policymakers began developing new problem-driven?edutainment? prominently featuring narratives of disability?from theimmunocompromised The Boy in the Plastic Bubble to ABC?s After SchoolSpecials and teen sick-lit. Although this conjoining of disabilityand adolescence began as a storytelling convention, disability became much morethan a metaphor as the process of medicalizing adolescence intensified by the1990s, with parenting books containing neuro-scientific warnings about theincomplete and volatile ?teen brain.? Undertaking a cultural history of youththat combines disability, queer, feminist, and comparative media studies, Elmanoffers a provocative new account of how American cultural producers,policymakers, and medical professionals have mobilized discourses of disabilityto cast adolescence as a treatable ?condition.? By tracing the teen?s unevenpassage from postwar rebel to 21st century patient, Chronic Youth showshow teenagers became a lynchpin for a culture of perpetual rehabilitation andneoliberal governmentality. 410 0$aNYU series in social and cultural analysis. 606 $aYouth$zUnited States$xConduct of life 606 $aAt-risk youth$zUnited States 606 $aTeenagers$zUnited States 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Gender Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aLAW / Media & the Law$2bisacsh 615 0$aYouth$xConduct of life. 615 0$aAt-risk youth 615 0$aTeenagers 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Gender Studies. 615 7$aLAW / Media & the Law. 676 $a305.2350973 686 $aLAW096000$aSOC032000$2bisacsh 700 $aElman$b Julie Passanante$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01725379 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996582046003316 996 $aChronic Youth$94128384 997 $aUNISA
