Description

Explore a detailed comparative study of youth experiences in Latin America through this academic work from Routledge. Focusing on children aged 12-17, the book examines the complex relationship between education and economic necessity during a transformative period in history. From the 1980s through the 1990s, many children gained better access to schooling, yet they simultaneously faced increasing pressure to support their families due to persistent and worsening poverty. This text provides a deep look into these competing demands by analyzing how social and economic shifts impacted the lives of young people. By utilizing nationally-representative household surveys from Chile, Peru, and Mexico, David Post provides a data-driven perspective on regional trends. This study is an essential resource for those studying labor economics, sociology, or the development of social welfare systems in Latin American societies. It offers a clear view of the tendencies for children to enter the workforce and the social implications of these economic shifts.
