Publish in our publication series

Does your current research relate to topics such as young people and their living conditions, youth cultures, life courses of young people, transitions and work, youth participation and youth work? If it does, the publication series of Finnish Youth Research Society is an excellent publication channel for various kind of papers. 

The Finnish Youth Research Society encourages authors and editors to include not only scientific content but also other content such as commentary, perspective texts, speeches or artistic content. These can be written by researchers as well as by other authors, including young people. However, the main focus of the manuscripts offered should be on scientific research. 

Our main publication language is Finnish, but we also publish in Swedish and English. The Finnish Youth Research Society does not charge any fees for publications. 

The sub-series of the Finnish Youth Research Society’s publication series are:
