New book traces Gen Z's romance struggles to 'mass social separation'
Generation Uncoupled’s Daniel Cox links young people’s changing social landscape to technology, individualism and shrinking social spaces
A new book argues that young people still want sex, friendship and romance as much as previous generations, but are being kept from them by technology, a dominant culture of individualism and the shrinking of shared social spaces. In Generation Uncoupled, public opinion pollster Dr Daniel Cox describes a 'social malaise' among the young and warns of an 'experience deficit' produced by what he calls 'mass social separation'.
