The world where everyone wants to be Peter Pan

From Afternoons, 3:10 pm on 8 October 2024

Adulting is hard. Over the years, Professor Keith Hayward has seen students at all sorts of universities reject the world of adult autonomy.  He looks at contemporary culture that patronizes and talks down to people and what it means for the world if everyone wants to be Peter Pan in his new book, Infantilised: How Our Culture Killed Adulthood.
