Young people are a vulnerable category of workers, finding
themselves in a delicate phase of their working life: their first
entry into the labour market. In many European countries,
youngsters are unemployed or have difficulty finding and obtaining
jobs. This situation has deteriorated particularly after the
crises, recessions and stagnation that has impacted European
economies in recent years. In addition to the cyclical or crisis
impact, structural factors are also very important. Additionally,
prolonged crises, as in some Eurozone countries, have transformed a
significant part of cyclical unemployment in structural (long term)
unemployment. Young People and the Labour Market: A Comparative
Perspective explores the condition of young people in the labour
market. The authors present new evidence from several countries,
with a special focus on Europe, and offer a comparative
perspective. They investigate questions such as which structural
conditions and labour market institutions guarantee better youth
performance, which education systems and school-to-work processes
are more effective and in which countries is gender differentiation
less of an issue. All of the aforementioned, as well as many other
comparisons which the authors make, are significant in helping to
facilitate the successful design of labour and education policies.
As the first investigation by economists to explore the complexity
of this topic, this book will be useful to both economists and
sociologists who are interested in the role of young people in the
labour market, and the problem of youth unemployment.
Now in paperback, book 2 in The Fabled Stables series from New York
Times bestselling author Jonathan Auxier introduces a new

companions are tending to the Fabled Stables when the building
shakes and shudders to make room for a new arrival: the
Tattle-Tail. Auggie and friends travel through the portal to a town
called Rainbow's End in search of this mysterious creature. Auggie
assumes that the Tattle-Tail is in danger, but he learns that it's
actually the town that needs rescuing . . . from an infestation of
Tattle-Tails!These talking tails have taken over, attaching
themselves to every backside in town (including Auggie's!). The
Tails tattle on whomever they're attached to: She picked her nose!
He just double-dipped! The constant stress of being tattled on has
thrown all of Rainbow's End into chaos!Soon, Auggie and friends
hatch a plan to collect the Tattle-Tails and bring them safely to
the Stables-foiling a pair of evil bank robbers along the way.
