This book confronts readers with questions emerging from the 'gap'
between EU aspirations to reduce youth unemployment without
increasing social exclusion - and what is actually happening in
practice. Aimed at a diverse readership, it is based on a three
year European Union (EU) project into education, training, guidance
and employment (ETG) programmes for young adults across six
countries. Insights are grounded in the lives and stories of
disadvantaged young adults, and of those who work with them,
bringing to life unintended impacts of well intended interventions.
The authors consider the influence of shifting political and
pedagogical ideologies in the EU on local practices and young
peoples' lives and choices. They also consider the impact of policy
and performance management discourses 'on the ground'. This work
uses rigorous yet innovative narrative forms to invite readers into
a 'whole system' inquiry into these complexities. Unemployed Youth
and Social Exclusion in Europe will make an important contribution
to reflecting critically on current policy and practice, as well as
to academic understandings of unemployed youth, and restrictive and
reflexive approaches to learning for inclusion across Europe.
