Sommario/riassunto: | Young people are transforming the global landscape. As the human population today is younger and more urban than ever before, prospects for achieving adulthood dwindle while urban migration soars. Stuck demonstrates how the Central African nation of Rwanda provides a compelling setting for grasping new challenges to the world's youth. |
