This is a timely volume taking seriously the wider perspectives of youth labor: it is not only the problem of unemployment, it is the life course perspective; it is not only the problem of education, it is the effective demand perspective; it is not only economic production, but also the social reproduction perspective that policymakers have to simultaneously consider in their endeavor to navigate all youth into good labor market transitions. If you share this view, dig deep into this highly professional volume and you will come out with richer insights. If you are skeptic, dig even deeper to sharpen your critical mind.
