  Transitions from Education to Work in Europe -
The Integration of Youth into EU Labour Markets

Edited by
Walter Müller
Markus Gangl
 

 


Based on new empirical evidence, this book provides a comparative analysis of the transition from school to work across the European Union. It examines the negative impacts of the recent employment turbulences on school leavers' integration into the labour market, as well as identifying the individual, social, and economic factors that facilitate smooth transitions.
