Young people and the Great Recession
回顾了大衰退对16-24岁青年劳动力市场的影响，以美国和英国为例分析青年失业，指出年轻时失业会给个人和社会带来长期成本，并主张政策干预。
This article reviews the effects of the Great Recession on youth labour markets. We argue that young people aged 16-24 have suffered disproportionately during the recession. Using the USA and UK as case studies, we analyse youth unemployment using microdata. We argue that there is convincing evidence that the effects of unemployment when young impose costs on individuals and society well into the future. Though the effects of current policies on youth unemployment are uncertain, there is still a strong case for policy intervention to address the difficulties that the young are having in accessing employment.
