Exploring Youth Unemployment in a Re-structured
African Economy. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 120
The increase in youth unemployment levels across the
world, significantly in the African developing
nations, threatens the attainment of the Millennium
Development Goals thereby frustrating efforts to
uplift the lives of millions of people living in
abject poverty.Youth unemployment is no longer
isolated to the unskilled youth but is increasingly
more common among the higher educated young
people.'Exploring Youth Unemployment in a
Re-structured African Economy' examines the global
and domestic factors that perpetuate this phenomenon
while further assessing the socio-economic
implications.The book exposes the knowledge gaps and
further points to some practical ways of addressing
the problem. The material is an excellent read for
professionals and students from a wide range of
fields such as international development studies,
development economics,education,political science as
well as individuals interested in various aspects of
African development.The study also presents an
excellent foundation for further research in areas of
re-structured economies, education, politics as well
as policy and planning in African countries.
