Au Maroc, les moins de 25 ans représentaient 43% de la population en 2019 et d'ici 2030, la part des 15-24 ans représentera l'un des principaux groupes d'âges dans le pays. La jeunesse a donc un rôle primordial à jouer dans le développement social, économique, culturel et politique du pays.

"This methodologically sound psychometric tool has been handed to Ecuadorian psychologists and teachers as a guide in the career counselling field. The tool will have a significant impact on the democratization of youth, assisting them to make well-targeted choices when planning their education and career. The authors' study may be viewed as pioneering work, due to its consideration of the significant cultural and geographic regional differentiation among graduates from the Pacific coast, the Andes, the Amazon rainforest and the Galapagos Islands. Reaching to the classics of literature on the subject, the authors have performed a momentous work, which is the construction of a psychometric tool that will be helpful in diagnosing career interests in the entire population of Ecuadorian youth. Worth additional acknowledgement are the high reliability indicators of the career interests questionnaire conducted on a representative and large study group, as well as the defined psychometric accuracy of the scale. This publication makes a civilizational quantum leap in the education of Ecuadorian youth, guaranteeing them a career choice that corresponds to their interests and ambitions. This pioneering publication on the Polish and world markets confirms the fact that Polish psychologists have the capability to "export" the psychometric school of thought to the Latin American region, with all of the scientific, social and humanitarian consequences involved"--Back cover.

This book intends to deepen the knowledge of the extended and uncertain transitions from school to work and to higher education by analysing the perspectives of youths and young adults and by addressing policies and institutional practices. The book critically examines the 'transition machinery' consisting of various education and training measures, projects and schemes, provided by educational institutions, the EU, ministries, municipalities and non-governmental organisations. Treating lack of education and unemployment mainly as individual problems, personal deficiencies or identity issues, the solutions are likewise individualised. The book illustrates how youth transitions are intertwined with social structures, power relations and differences.

Based on eleven months of field work (2009-2011), this book analyzes the situation of youth in urban Gulu, Northern Uganda, in the aftermath of the war between the Lord's Resistance Army and the Ugandan Government (1986-2006). Specifically, it focuses on the generation that was born and grew up during the 20-year war: How do members of this generation perceive and evaluate socio-cultural changes which occurred in Acholi society throughout the war years? How do they imagine their future society? And how do they react to the expectations directed at them by their elders? In order to answer these questions, the book draws on rich ethnographic material. It provides an in-depth analysis of how imaginations of the post-war society are contested and negotiated between different groups of social actors - youth and elders, men and women as well as local, national and international actors. While some try to re-establish former cultural practices and conventions and call for a 'retraditionalization' of Acholi society, others lobby for 'modernization' and attempt to establish 'new' social structures, values and norms which are strongly influenced by local understandings of 'the Western culture'. The book presents numerous examples of the multiple and complex ways young people strategically position themselves in these debates and make use of the various discourses on culture, tradition and modernity in their negotiations of generational, gender, family, and peer-to-peer relations.

This study seeks at least partial answers to three questions: 1. How does youth in various countries view the future? An outlook on the future is admittedly a many-faceted affair, involving as it does political, economic, and social expectations as well as personal hopes and aspirations. We are interested in all these facets, but our chief interest is in the way the present dark and uncertain world situation affects youths' attitudes toward their personal lives and future careers. 2. Do young people in different countries view their futures in essentially the same way? If we find a uniformity of peaceful ideals and intentions we may have reason to hope for a better world. If, however, we find little uniformity, we must try to delineate the chief national differences. They may be so striking that we shall be forced to affirm the existence of diverse national characters and perhaps abandon the hope that advances in communication and growing similarity in educational practices are creating a single world community. 3. Is international social research at the present time practicable and beneficial? If the investigation here reported proves to be rewarding we may hope that additional problems of worldwide importance may soon receive concerted study and constructive analysis by social scientists in many lands. The movement toward international social research is, as we have said, already under way. But each new attempt has something to teach us concerning the advantages and limitations of such investigations. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
