This essay analyzes the article Changing labor markets and early career outcomes: Labor market entry in Europe over the last ten years written by Markus Gangl. In most Western European countries, youth unemployment increased in the 1980s and remained high in the 1990s. Many young workers waited a long time to find work and “stayed living with their parents for longer and longer” (Blancheflower, 2000: 4). Youth unemployment and problems of transition from school to work for market operators have become phenomena. According to these social processes, Gangl's research is conducted to develop a framework for understanding these transitions from school to work in different European countries and to use this framework to analyze the factors that influence success and failure in education and training and integration into the labor market. The objective of this study is to explain the differences between individuals with different levels of education and differences between countries' systems, and to discover and describe how these differences influence young people's transition from full-time education to the labor market. Gangl identifies major trends such as the long-term trend of educational expansion, changing employment structure, and changing youth group size, and how these trends are influenced by economic environment conditions and could have a different impact between the groups that drop out and therefore influencing the nature of social stratification (understood as risk of unemployment and occupational allocation) in the short or medium term. As is typical for quantitative research, the author's theoretical discussion, based on classical labor market theory, deductively leads to the following hypothetical effects for each of the four trends; H1: Ascending une...... middle of paper ......ex of the householder's occupation in which the respondent lived until age 18 (Duncan, 1961 in Porter, 1976:25). Although the study is highly professional, it would be more coherent if the structural variables had also been related to the socio-psychological variables. As for Blancheflower (2000:4), the youth proportion of the labor force has declined considerably, therefore decreasing the size of the youth cohort should lead to lower unemployment rates for young people and higher relative earnings for young people, but the The economic position of young people has worsened rather than improved. If the change in the size of the youth cohort has no effect on youth unemployment, it is more useful that Gangl considered other measurable variables with more significant effects such as technological changes or increased trade with less developed countries with huge numbers of workers young and less qualified.
