RETHINKING SCHOOL-TO-WORK TRANSITIONS IN AUSTRA...

This book draws on the stories of thirty-two young Australians to identify the barriers and
obstacles they face in 'getting a job' in precarious times and from their vantage point. It
maps the kinds of educational policies and practices that need to be created and more widely
sustained to assist their career aspirations and life chances. It is timely in terms of
contributing to an alternative set of possibilities based on a commitment to the principles and
values of social justice  respect  trust  care  democracy and citizenship. In constructing an
alternative vision and practice for education and training it advocates the right of all young
people to have a say in these broader public debates. In pursuing this agenda  it deliberately
sets out to listen to what young people themselves have to say with a view to interrupting the
way things are. In other words  the book seeks to identify and explain the dreams  desires and
aspirations of young people with a view to creating a new imaginary and socially just future.
