Abstract
This paper argues for a broadened vision of political agency to consider age as a relevant influence on individuals' political interests and actions and to recognise young people as engaged in the making, negotiation and contestation of global politics. It is not a call to dispense with critical analyses of state power and other structures which circumscribe the potential of social actors to become politically engaged. Yet, it joins feminist theorists in challenging the state-centeredness of (critical) geopolitics' notion of the political and asks that young people's positioning in relation to international politics be acknowledged and understood as geographically and historically situated.
