Opis

First published in 1982, this volume of essays identifies a number of key issues in the pattern of state response to youth unemployment which had evolved in the inter-war and post-war periods. The contributors discuss a number of related themes and how contemporary measures recapitulate the rhetoric and policies of pre-war interventions.
