Surveys the history of youth unemployment and identifies key issues
underlying the current crisis. The Youth Unemployment Crisis: A
Reference Handbook examines the recent phenomenon in the United
States wherein young workers ages 16 to 24 are unemployed or
disconnected from the labor force at disproportionate rates. It
describes in detail what led to the crisis, who it affects, and
what can be and is being done about it. The book opens with a
chapter that addresses the nature and scope of the crisis, which is
followed by a discussion of the inherent problems, controversies,
and possible solutions. It includes essays from a diverse range of
contributors, providing useful perspectives to round out the
author's expertise, as well as a collection of data and documents;
an overview of important people, organizations, and resources
relating to the crisis; a chronology listing important events in
the youth unemployment timeline; and a glossary of key terms.
