"Much has been said about Filipino millennials. Born in the 1980s and 1990s, they are often described in passionate terms: they can seize the day, pursue their dreams, and travel the world. And yet they can also be self-entitled and narcissistic. How true are these characteristics? Drawing from the empirical work of 17 scholars from around the country, this collection presents an alternative view. Millennials belong to a fragmented generation whose dreams, abilities, and dispositions need to be understood in context. An agenda-setting collection, this will be useful for researchers and practitioners who wish to understand the state of the youth and the emergence of new generations.
The volume shatters the stereotype of Filipino millennials as gadget-wielding, selfie-taking, and apathetic hedonists. It assembles a diverse range of research by Filipino scholars on young people today: their politics, religious practices, and identities that intersect with questions of sexuality, consumption, and leisure. It further unpacks their aspirations for the future, advocacies for the environment, and struggles against economic precarity and ethnic marginalization. This excellent book is for anyone interested in having a grasp of the complexities of this generation.
