This book examines patterns of political engagement of long-term
unemployed youth. The authors show how unemployment affects the
personal, social, and political life of young people. Focusing on
the case of Geneva in Switzerland, the study shows the importance
of socioeconomic, relational, psychological, and institutional
resources for the political engagement of unemployed youth. The
book shows specifically how the relationship between unemployment
and the political engagement of unemployed youth is mediated by a
number of factors: their socioeconomic status and more generally
their individual background, their level of deprivation and the
associated degree of subjective well-being; the social capital that
unemployed youth draw from involvement in voluntary associations
and interpersonal networks and relations, and the political
learning stemming from interactions with welfare institutions and
their perception of such interactions. Students and scholars in
areas including Sociology, Political Science, Economics, Youth
Studies and Social Policy will find this study of interest.
