Beschreibung
Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Sociology - Children and Youth, grade: A (1.3), University of Siegen, course: Sociology, language: English, abstract: African continent is saddled with youths who mostly are living in a state of “waithood,” which is a term referred to unemployed graduates who due to the unavailability of livelihood or jobs depends on their parents. This waithood is not only experienced by the African youths alone but is shared some number of young people in the developed world as well who are also struggling with challenges of unemployment and political exclusion. The said generation is progressively losing faith in the capability of its government to curb their dilemma, and thus they have no choice but to rebel against the status quo as seen in the incremental protest from the youth upheaval in Tunisia, the Arab Spring and the overthrowing of Senegalese Abdoulaye Wade and Campaore in Burkina Faso, Occupy Wall Street in the USA and in occupy Abuja in Nigeria by disgruntled youth and Los Indignados in Spain, depicting an era of young people clamoring for political change.
