Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. This incisive Research Agenda examines the opportunities and constraints facing young people as they transition from education to work. Leading scholars detail how scientific understandings of school-to-work transitions have evolved and identify the multiple conditions which affect and influence them. Chapters discuss the increasing uncertainties and challenges faced by young adults trying to enter the workforce. They outline how a variety of factors such as personal attributes, individual resources, artificial intelligence and the green economy, are leading to new realities which will further influence access to quality jobs. A Research Agenda for School-to-Work Transitions advocates for stronger attention to place-based research, greater cross-sector coordination and improved balance between broad and targeted policies, emphasising the positive impact of including young people in governance co-design. A Research Agenda for School-to-Work Transitions is an essential resource for scholars and students in sociology, social policy, education, work and employment. Policymakers and practitioners will equally benefit from insights into strategic planning, training, lobbying activities and sustainable development goals.About this book
