本期的文章报道了不同国家的年轻人的各种行为和态度。这些发现带来的一个明显的挑战是解释这些态度和行为在国家之间的差异。在本文中，我们将从制度变化中寻找答案。制度为年轻人提供了一系列机会和约束，但它们也反映并帮助建立了规范的适当行为方式。我们从福利制度类型、劳动力市场监管和教育系统等方面对制度差异进行了概念化，并试图勾勒出这些差异可能解释年轻人地位和从青年到成年过渡方面的一些国家差异的一些方式。
The articles in this issue report on a variety of young people's behaviors and attitudes, drawn from a wide range of countries. An obvious challenge to which these findings give rise is to explain the differences between countries in these attitudes and behaviors. In this article, we look to institutional variation to supply an answer. Institutions establish a set of opportunities and constraints to which young people respond, but they also reflect, and help to establish, normatively appropriate ways of behaving. We conceptualize institutional variation in terms of welfare regime types, labor market regulation, and educational systems, and we try to sketch some of the ways in which variations in these might explain some national differences in some aspects of the position of young people and the transition from youth to adulthood.
