近年来，政策制定者越来越多地认为，青年参与以当地为基础的小规模艺术活动，能够在让“高危”青年重新接受主流教育方面发挥宝贵作用，并为社区提供一种打击社会排斥的手段。然而，对于一些评论员来说，这种方法背后的政治必要性与年轻人创造性参与文化活动的种种用途和野心格格不入，导致一些人批评这种方法是对艺术的“工具性”使用。本文介绍了英格兰北部三个以青年为基础的社区音乐项目的调查结果，探讨了与青年参与社区音乐有关的现行政策的一些后果，特别是那些被认为处于危险之中的人。分析揭示了这种文化政策的使用可能对参与性活动产生负面影响的方式，使社区音乐项目面临达不到风险目标的危险。
Over recent years, young people's participation in small‐scale, locally based arts activities has increasingly come to be viewed by policy‐makers as capable of playing a valuable role in both re‐engaging ‘at‐risk’ youth with mainstream education and providing a means through which communities might combat social exclusion. For some commentators, however, the political imperatives underpinning this approach sit uncomfortably with the multifarious uses and ambitions of creative youthful cultural participation, leading some to criticise the adopted approach as an ‘instrumental’ use of the arts. Presenting findings from three youth‐based community music projects set in the north of England, this paper explores some of the ramifications of current policy relating to the community music participation of young people, particularly those considered ‘at‐risk’. The analysis reveals ways in which such use of cultural policy can have a negative impact on participatory activity, leaving community music projects in danger of missing their at‐risk target.
