This collection examines the relationships between a globalising
neoliberal capitalism, a post-GFC environment of recession and
austerity, and the moral economies of young people's health and
well-being. Contributors explore how in the second decade of the
21st century, many young people in the OECD/EU economies and in the
developing economies of Asia, Africa and Central and South America
continue to be carrying a particularly heavy burden for many of the
downstream effects of the 2008-09 Global Financial Crisis. The
authors explore the ways in which increasing local and global
inequalities often have profound consequences for large populations
of young people. These consequences are not just related to
marginalisation from education, training and work. They also
include obstacles to their active participation in the civic life
of their communities, to their transitions, to their sense of
belonging. The book examines the choices that are made, or not made
by governments, businesses and individuals in relation to young
people's education, training, work, health and well-being,
sexualities, diets and bodies, in the context of a crisis of
neoliberalism and of austerity.
