Young workers are always affected badly by recession. But how badly they are affected also depends on labour market institutions and the nature of labour contracts that adult workers hold. In this lecture I will examine how young workers were affected by recession in European economies and relate the relative performance of a selection of countries to their institutional structure.
Presented by Tito Boeri
Towards a life-affirming economy. What changes are needed to ensure that the economy can serve the purpose of peace, through the reduction of direct, structural and cultural violence and the satisfaction of the fundamental needs of all human beings, thereby contributing to equitable human relations and guaranteeing the minimum impact from an ecological point of view?
Organized by the Centre for Education on International Solidarity of Trento
Coordinated by Carla Locatelli
Speaker Johan Galtung
One of Italy’s foremost entrepreneurs describes how the labour market has changed in Italy in the past fifty years. In particular, how it has evolved in relation to young people, and to those about to enter the labour market as against those who are already employed. His account photographs the changing mechanisms of selection for the managerial classes, beginning with the management of big business.
Presented by Enrico Franco
Spectators present at the events allow and authorise future use of any photographs taken and any film or audio sequences recorded.
