Career
In 1971 Kenneth Keniston developed the idea of youth. He highlighted some of the various themes and transformations he viewed as crucial in defining “youth” as a stage of life. In his book Youth and Dissent: A Rise in a New Opposition, he discusses the underlying differences between what is referred to as adolescence and young adulthood. He claims that adolescence is typically reflective of an incline in immaturity and a reflection in youthful behavior.
Keniston taught at Harvard University and Yale University before joining the MIT faculty in 1977,
