description "This paper examines the degree of persistence of youth unemployment (total, male and female) in twenty-four countries by using two alternative measures: the AR coefficient and the fractional differencing parameter, based on short- and longmemory processes respectively.

Specifically, active labour market policies are necessary to prevent short-term unemployment from becoming structural (long-term)."
