Youth Unemployment Scenarios : South Africa in 2040
This book examines the factors driving youth unemployment in South Africa, exploring potential future outcomes of its mass unemployment, and offering a variety of strategies to avoid an impending crisis in the country. Utilizing scenario analysis rooted in complex systems theory while building on statistical and fi eld research, the author illustrates four possible future states of youth employment in South Africa in the year 2040.This includes the South African version of the Arab Spring, where young people riot or agitate for extreme political and social change because of a belief that access to education and jobs is only possible through social status or corruption (Spring), fair access to a high number of jobs supported by Chinese interventions (Summer), a technology- driven decline in the number of jobs where merit- based access for youth is granted (Fall), and the collapse of the economy, with the economy collapsing and youth becoming increasingly desperate (Winter).The author then presents five strategies to fight youth unemployment, including training of youth to start businesses, stimulating small- and medium- sized enterprises, and sending unemployed youth abroad for skills development and to where their labour is needed. This book will be of interest to scholars of South African politics and economics, labour economics and youth studies, and readers with an interest in tackling youth unemployment independent of the country.

Economic aspects of regional welfare : Income distribution and unemployment
This book is the product of research which I undertook for my doc- toral thesis.The project was started whilst I was at the Free Univer- sity of Amsterdam, and the State University of Groningen gave me ample opportunity to complete the work.At both universities I was lucky enough to find kind colleagues who were willing to perform my teaching tasks, enabling me to spend much of my time some of on my research.I should like to thank Wietze Boomsma, Kees van den Hoeven and Jan Oosterhaven for their kind help.I was also most encouraged to discover several students at both institutions who were interested in the research topic.This meant that some research could be performed with their co-operation, which proved most stimulating.Harry ter Braak and Henk van Metelen were especially enthusiastic helpers.During the initial stage of research, Fons Bertens did a great deal of meticulous work, with never a com- plaint.In the final stages, Arend Stemerding helped me greatly.The completed manuscript was read by Nol Merkies and Peter Nijkamp, who had some helpful comments on the contents. Pro- fessor Nijkamp succeeded in stimulating me during the research by his interest in the project and subsequent edifying discussions.Several persons helped to type the manuscript, but Yvonne van Tuyl took the lion's share, typing a perfect final copy in record time.

Constructing Unemployment : The Politics of Joblessness in East and West
As the longest economic boom in history has given way to leaner times, unemployment has re-emerged as a major issue.This theoretically and empirically sophisticated book examines how unemployment takes on widely different political meanings and explores the ways in which governments act to change their own accountability for unemployment.It contributes to the comparative political economy literature that analyzes political responses to economic problems.Baxandall reverses a conventional application of comparative research by using an Eastern European case to reveal political dynamics that are mirrored in the West - as demonstrated with American and Western European cases.Using interviews and previously unexplored archives to consider a dramatic transformation in the meaning of unemployment in Hungary, he demonstrates how the politics of economic change depend crucially on the political re-crafting of economic categories.

Social Work, Social Welfare, Unemployment and Vulnerability Among Youth
Social Work, Social Welfare, Unemployment and Vulnerability Among Youth critically analyses contemporary welfare state interventions on unemployment and poverty among youth in a context of societal transformation.It also considers how we can develop future knowledge and methods in evolving welfare institutions.Young people constitute a group that is particularly exposed to high unemployment, identity and future uncertainties, economic difficulties, and educational and housing challenges.Experiences from social work and research have shown that young people often face multiple issues, which are often interlinked.In social work this is a challenge owing to little knowledge on the most pressing needs of different groups – seen from the perspective of young people themselves.The authors focus on the tension points in practice and examine policy developments around young people and welfare dynamics based on discussions and research in the Nordic countries and beyond.In doing so, this book connects research-based knowledge with the challenges social workers meet in their everyday practices.It will be of interest to all scholars, students, and professionals working within the following fields: social work, social policy, child and youth studies, and sociology.

Labor, Credit, and Goods Markets : The Macroeconomics of Search and Unemployment
An integrated framework to study the theoretical and quantitative properties of economies with frictions in labor, financial, and goods markets. This book offers an integrated framework to study the theoretical and quantitative properties of economies with frictions in multiple markets.Building on analyses of markets with frictions by 2010 Nobel laureates Peter A.Diamond, Dale T. Mortensen, and Christopher A. Pissarides, which provided a new theoretical approach to search markets, the book applies this new paradigm to labor, finance, and goods markets.It shows, in particular, how frictions in different markets interact with each other. The book first covers the main developments in the analysis of the labor market in the presence of frictions, offering a systematic analysis of the dynamics of this environment and explaining the notion of macroeconomic volatility.Then, building on the generality and simplicity of the search analysis, the book adapts it to other markets, developing the tools and concepts to analyze friction in these markets.The book goes beyond the traditional general equilibrium analysis of markets, which is often frictionless.It begins with the standard analysis of a single market, and then sequentially integrates more markets into the analysis, progressing from labor to financial to goods markets.Along the way, the book provides a number of useful results and insights, including the existence of a direct link between search frictions and the degree of volatility in the economy.
