Graan, Andrew
- Abstract
The article discusses youth pastimes and youth unemployment in Skopje, Macedonia. Particular focus is given to the urban practice of šetanje, or the evening stroll. According to the author, youth practices of passing time, including resting, walking, and chance social encounters, are strongly linked to neoliberal government reforms. Details on family life, self-presentation, and anxiety are presented. Macedonia's social safety net and the country's participation in Euro-Atlantic integration are also discussed.
