More about the book
Focusing on the experiences of hard-to-reach young adults, this study challenges conventional views on social exclusion and welfare policies. It reveals how current labor market practices often trap individuals in low-paying jobs, perpetuating their exclusion. The research delves into young adults' struggles with education, employment, and the balance between childcare and work for young mothers. It also examines the complex factors influencing desistance from crime and drug use, as well as the long-term effects of growing up in impoverished neighborhoods.
