This collection of articles is based on the Finnish Youth Research Network’s research project, 15-19- year-old young people in Finnish Society, which was conducted during the years 2003–2005. In this project different dimensions of the lives of 15-19-year-old Finnish young people were analysed in terms of young people’s own social environment on the one hand, and in terms of the space defined by structural aspects of society on the other. The project included a wide variety of subject areas: the culturally defined age structure and overcoming it, multiculturalism and racism in young people’s everyday life, the significance of youth projects in social work, the effects of residential areas and family background on young people’s academic careers, the effects of parents’ work on young people’s well-being, and changes in young people’s consumption cultures in the information society. New sub-projects were also attached to this project, continuing into 2006.
