Youth Guarantee and Welfare State Regimes: Cross-Countries Considerations (original) (raw)

2020

Abstract

This chapter applies a Welfare Regimes framework to further examine the processes of domestic adaptation to the Youth Guarantee (YG) in Austria, Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Belgium, Italy, Slovakia, Spain and the United Kingdom. It connects the evidence from Chaps. 9– 17 to selected Welfare State Regimes’ (WSRs) characteristics, covering also adult education. The results point at features in the domestic adaptation to the YG as not independent from WSRs, but also at the missed opportunity, across WSRs, of seeing this policy instrument as connected to adult education in facing the educational concerns of young adults. Yet, the chapter cautions towards welfare uniformity as it acknowledges that Welfare State theory and frameworks do not fully account for intra-country, local differences.
