Drawing on some of the most recent qualitative and ethnographic research, this book examines the transitional period between leaving school and entering the workforce for youth in the United Kingdom. The authors examine a range of employment entry programs from diverse geographical and economic landscapes, revealing the tension between employability and good quality employment, and the ways in which young people from varying social and regional backgrounds are positioned very differently within the current framework. | Getting In and Getting On in the Youth Labour Market by Pauline Leonard, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
