| Publisher Description: Widespread youth unemployment is rapidly becoming a major problem around the world. Young people themselves are being blamed and their non-participation in the workforce criminalised. Ross Fergusson mounts a powerful critique of current approaches to youth unemployment, re-examining its causes and consequences from a wide range of perspectives. This is essential for anyone working with or trying to address the problems of youth today. |
