Russian Youth in the Labour Market: Work Attitudes, Career Paths and Regional Disparities
Ch. 9. P. 301–338.
In this chapter of the book, the authors explore the reality of young people’s lives in Russia by reflecting on the situation of youth in the Russian labour market in the context of local and global changes. We are interested in the ‘classical’ but still very crucial research question of how young people enter the labour market in the context of their transition to adulthood, and what resources they have for a more successful transition. Moreover, taking into account the size of the Russian labour market and its heterogeneity, we will pay special attention to the differences young people in the labour market experience in terms of inclusion in various regions of the Russian Federation.
