Surveys the history of youth unemployment and identifies key issues
underlying the current crisis. The Youth Unemployment Crisis: A
Reference Handbook examines the recent phenomenon in the United States
wherein young workers ages 16 to 24 are unemployed or disconnected
from the labor force at disproportionate rates. It describes in detail
what led to the crisis, who it affects, and what can be and is being
done about it. The book opens with a chapter that addresses the nature
and scope of the crisis, which is followed by a discussion of the
inherent problems, controversies, and possible solutions. It includes
essays from a diverse range of contributors, providing useful
perspectives to round out the author's expertise, as well as a
collection of data and documents; an overview of important people,
organizations, and resources relating to the crisis; a chronology
listing important events in the youth unemployment timeline; and a
glossary of key terms.
