Using a biographical approach, this book integrates the perspectives of social policy, sociology, youth and transition research, and education and labour-market research. It compares policy and practice in a variety of European national contexts and explores the dilemmas of policies for the inclusion of young people, suggesting that a holistic Integrated Transition Policy, which puts young people's subjective experience at its centre, can provide an alternative to current policies and practice.Less

The chapters in this book imply a way forward for the direction of economic policy in the Middle East and North Africa. This chapter summarizes three main conclusions from the evidence compiled in the book. First, more research needs to be done using innovative social data collection techniques to better understand how institutions and incentives can be reordered to better foster youth inclusion under post–Arab Spring regimes. Second, several areas of major policy reform are highlighted using the evidence compiled in this book. Third, the most important area of future reforms lies in small-scale social innovation that can help foster dynamic policy responses to the challenges young people will continue to face even as the political economy landscape continues to shift.Less
