Köp båda 2 för 2111 krThis book is an important contribution to the welfare state literature as well as the school-to-work transition literature, on three regards in particular. First, it provides an in-depth empirical analysis of the situation of young people and of policy reforms in Nordic countries, which are comparatively highly relevant, both from a scientific and a political point of view. Second, authors do not focus only on one policy sector and try to take into account many policies at the same time, which is crucial if one wants to take regimes or institutional complementarities seriously. Third, they deal with specific groups of vulnerable young people usually overlooked in the literature, i.e. minority ethnic youth and young people with disabilities. -- Tom Chevalier, Journal of Social Policy The book addresses very timely issues from a variety of perspectives and is thus appealing not only to scholars and students of social sciences and legal studies but also to practitioners and policymakers who seek a nuanced account of the multifaceted challenges involved with school to work transitions and youth unemployment. -- Jennifer Shore, Social Policy and Administration
