DOWNLOAD EBOOKLa diversidad juvenil, que en principio parece obvia, no ha sido considerada como tal por expertos e instancias responsables de la investigación sobre los jóvenes, sobre todo, no en la medida que sería necesario y pertinente. Han proliferado y proliferan por doquier un sinfín de informes y estudios sobre el ámbito juvenil (principalmente cuantitativos, descriptivos, unidimensionales) que tienden a soslayar, obviar y/o descuidar la complejidad y la heterogeneidad de este colectivo. Lo propio se podría decir de la nula o escasa conceptualización, así como la insuficiente fundamentación teórica que viene recibiendo este objeto de estudio por parte de las ciencias sociales. Este libro se nos presenta como un intento de superar estas deficiencias o lagunas teórico-metodológicas. Con este punto de partida, el autor analiza, de forma crítica, sistemática y comprehensiva, la articulación de tres importantes y específicas dimensiones de la realidad social: los jóvenes, el trabajo y la identidad. A través de una aproximación psicosociológica y aplicando una metodología de corte fundamentalmente cualitativa, se aborda la centralidad del trabajo en los jóvenes (concepciones, significados, percepciones, discursos) y la incidencia/determinación/influencia de este fenómeno en el proceso de construcción de identidad juvenil. Esteban Agulló es sociólogo y psicólogo social.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe challenges for young people making the transition to adulthood are greater today than ever before. Globalization, with its power to reach across national boundaries and into the smallest communities, carries with it the transformative power of new markets and new technology. At the same time, globalization brings with it new ideas and lifestyles that can conflict with traditional norms and values. And while the economic benefits are potentially enormous, the actual course of globalization has not been without its critics who charge that, to date, the gains have been very unevenly distributed, generating a new set of problems associated with rising inequality and social polarization. Regardless of how the globalization debate is resolved, it is clear that as broad global forces transform the world in which the next generation will live and work, the choices that today's young people make or others make on their behalf will facilitate or constrain their success as adults. Traditional expectations regarding future employment prospects and life experiences are no longer valid. Growing Up Global examines how the transition to adulthood is changing in developing countries, and what the implications of these changes might be for those responsible for designing youth policies and programs, in particular, those affecting adolescent reproductive health. The report sets forth a framework that identifies criteria for successful transitions in the context of contemporary global changes for five key adult roles: adult worker, citizen and community participant, spouse, parent, and household manager.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne out of every five Latin Americans or around 130 million people have never known anything but poverty, subsisting on less than US$4-a-day throughout their lives. These are the region ́s chronically poor, who have remained so despite unprecedented inroads against poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean since the turn of the century. Left Behind: Chronic Poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean takes a closer look at the region’s entrenched poor, who and where they are, and how existing policies need to change in order to effectively assist them. The book shows significant variations of rates of chronic poverty both across and within countries. Within a single country, some regions show incidence rates up to eight times higher than the lowest. Despite the higher rates of chronic poverty in rural areas, chronic poverty is as much an urban as a rural issue. In fact, considering absolute numbers, urban areas in many countries, including Chile, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia and the Dominican Republic, have more chronic poor than rural areas. Undoubtedly the region has come a long way during the decade in terms of poverty reduction, guided by a mix of sustained growth and increased levels in amounts and quality of public spending and programs targeted directly or indirectly to the chronic poor. While improving endowments and the context where the chronic poor live is a necessary condition going forward, the decade’s experience suggests that it may not be enough to reach the chronic poor. The book posits that refinements to the existing policy toolkit †“ as opposed to more programs †“ may come a long way in helping the remaining poor. These refinements include intensifying efforts to improve coordination between different social and economic programs, which can boost the income generation process and deal with the intergenerational transmission of chronic poverty by investing in early childhood development. Equally important though, there is an urgent need to adapt programs to directly address the psychological toll of chronic poverty on people’s mindset and aspirations, which currently undermines the effectiveness of the existing policy efforts.
