Summary: | "The future of a society depends on the opportunities offered to young people to develop viable independent lives. The main objective of this study is to analyse the ways in which Spanish young people achieve adulthood and the difficulties they have to overcome in the process.
This study examines how young people assume their responsibilities as adults, looking at this process from a comparative European perspective. In addition, the impact of the current economic crisis on the transitions of young people is studied.
The authors question the effectiveness of youth social policies in facilitating the transition to adulthood. With special attention given to the European dimension, they also provide data to guide discussion on recommendations and actions to support the integration and autonomy of young people as a key resource in building social cohesion." |
