人口学家和社会学家长期以来一直关注个人向成年过渡的过程。事件的发生和时间往往被仔细审查,以了解阻止年轻人成为“完全成年人”的因素。然而,当前的经济危机凸显了这些通道背后的复杂性,促使学者们重新评估什么构成了向成年人的过渡,特别是存在哪些制度机制来帮助年轻人实现每个阶段的过渡。《欧洲的工作、家庭政策和向成年人过渡》一书结合了社会政策和性别研究的见解,大大丰富了文献,远远超出了单纯分析人口统计标志的范围。相反,这本书侧重于年轻人的障碍和挑战,对个人的生命历程和机构设置之间的相互作用提出了全面和及时的看法。这本书的灵感来自两个文学来源,分为两部分。第一部分,基于对新的社会风险和这些风险的福利解决方案的研究,提出了三个章节的社会政策范式和政策解决方案,在欧盟采取的解决青年人的风险。在这些范例中,最重要的是需要了解当前的社会政策如何有助于协调年轻人的工作和家庭。通过评估三种政策范式,即社会投资方法,过渡劳动力市场和个人生命历程的方法,作者强调了这些范式如何定义的问题和解决方案的实质性差异,尽管共享的共同语言,如新的社会风险,生命历程,人力资本和重新商品化。此外,人们注意到,这些规范将工作置于家庭之上,强调家庭生活对就业的影响。这句话使作者采用了一种新颖的观点,即“庆祝家庭”(第6页),而是研究年轻人创造一个自主家庭的现有机会。本书的第二部分受到向成年过渡文学的启发,由五章组成,以比较的方式回顾和比较了过渡的每一个阶段-离开父母的家,进入劳动力市场,赚取独立收入和组建家庭-同时探讨各国的政策如何有助于鼓励或阻止这种转变的发生。此外,有些章节还包括
Demographers and sociologists have long been concerned about the passages involved in individuals’ transitions to adulthood. Both the occurrence and timing of events have often been scrutinized to understand the factors preventing young individuals from becoming ‘full adults’. However, the current economic crisis has highlighted the complexity underlying these passages, prompting scholars to re-evaluate what constitutes a transition to adulthood and, especially, what institutional mechanisms exist to aid young adults achieve each phase of the transition. By combining insights from social policy and gender studies, Work, Family Policies and Transitions to Adulthood in Europe contributes substantially to the literature by going well beyond the mere analysis of demographic markers. Instead, focusing on young adults’ obstacles and challenges, the book presents a comprehensive and timely view on the interplay between individuals’ life courses and the institutional settings. The book, which was inspired by two sources of literature, is structured in two parts. The first part, based on studies on new social risks and welfare solutions to these risks, presents in three chapters the social policy paradigms and policy solutions adopted in the EU to address young adults’ risks. At the forefront of these paradigms is the need to understand how current social policies contribute to reconcile young adults’ work and family. By evaluating three policy paradigms–namely the social investment approach, the transitional labour market and the individual life course approach–the authors highlight substantial differences in how each of these paradigms defines the problem and solutions, despite sharing common language such as new social risks, life course, human capital and re-commodification. Moreover, by normatively prioritizing work over family, it is noted that these paradigms emphasize the consequences of family life for employment. This remark brings the authors to adopt a novel view by ‘celebrating the family’(p. 6) and, instead, examine the existing opportunities for young adults to create an autonomous household.The second part of the book, inspired by the transition to adulthood literature, consists of five chapters which examine descriptively and in a comparative fashion each passage of the transition–leaving the parental home, entering the labour market, earning an independent income and family formation–whilst exploring how policies in each country contribute to encourage or prevent the transition from occurring. Furthermore, some chapters contain
