Poverty & unemployment; Social mobility; Employment & unemployment
Much of the literature that addresses youth unemployment has been framed within an economic paradigm and much less attention has been focused on the role played by country-specific value orientations in structuring economic activity.

Drawing on extensive fieldwork research and the work of experts in Europe and the United States, this book provides a culturally nuanced analysis of key issues relating to youth unemployment.

Examining the causes and consequences of youth unemployment, it explores ways forward to promote economic self-sufficiency. This pioneering work offers invaluable tailored policy solutions to tackle one of today's most important socioeconomic issues.

Reviews for The Growing Challenge of Youth Unemployment in Europe and America: A Cross-Cultural Perspective

First austerity, now COVID-19: youth unemployment will scar the recovery and damage lives for years unless governments on both sides of the Atlantic re-examine what has worked (and what has not) to get young people into the workforce. A road map toward a better future for millions, this book is a must-read for experts and policy makers. Josef Konvitz, University of Glasgow Professor Jagannathan and her collaborators use richly textured case studies to identify the institutional, political and cultural arrangements underpinning high youth unemployment in Southern Mediterranean countries, and offer practical policy insights. Marta Tienda, Princeton University
