By exploring the tensions between democratic and anti-democratic practices, the study reveals how young activists navigate political landscapes, uncovering the intricate relationships between conservative discourses, neoliberalism, and political identity formation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\"\u003eDrawing on political psychology and post-structuralist approaches, the author challenges traditional interpretations of youth political participation.
