Book Synopsis Arrested Adulthood by : James E. Cote
Download or read book Arrested Adulthood written by James E. Cote and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2000-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination into the social influences that have prolonged youth in today's adults Why are today's adults more like adolescents, in their dress and personal tastes, than ever before? Why do so many adults seem to drift and avoid responsibilities such as work and family? As the traditional family breaks down and marriage and child rearing are delayed, what makes a person an adult?Many people in the industrial West are simply not "growing up" in the traditional sense. Instead, they pursue personal, individual fulfillment and emerge from a vague and prolonged youth into a vague and insecure adulthood. The transition to adulthood is becoming more hazardous, and the destination is becoming more difficult to reach, if it is reached at all. Arrested Adulthood examines the variety of young people's responses to this new situation. James E. Côté shows us adults who allow the profit-driven industries of mass culture to provide the structure that is missing, as their lives become more individualistic and atomized. He also shows adults who resist anomie and build their world around their sense of personal connectedness to others. Finally, Côté provides a vision of a truly progressive society in which all members can develop their potentials apart from the influence of the market. In so doing, he gives us a clearer vision of what it means to be an adult and makes sense of the longest, but least understood period of the life course.

Download or read book The Class of 86 Revisited written by Lynn Barr-Telford and published by Human Resources Development Canada. This book was released on 1996 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report, also funded by Human Resources Development Canada, contains results of the Follow-up of 1986 Graduates Survey (FOG). The FOG survey took place in March 1991 and was the second time that 1986 graduates were interviewed. These graduates were first contacted in May 1988 for the National Graduates Survey (NGS). Over 35,000 respondents to the NGS who were still living in Canada were re-interviewed by telephone for the FOG. The results presented in this report represent the experiences of 1986 graduates of trade/vocational, career/technical and university programs living in Canada in both May 1988 and March 1991. The report looks at 1986 graduates' labour market activities, their earnings, the relationship between their education and labour market activities, and their further educational qualifications five years after graduation. The results of the FOG survey are also compared to those obtained in the NGS which was conducted two years after graduation.

Book Synopsis Why Has Inequality in Weekly Earnings Increased in Canada? by : René Morissette
Download or read book Why Has Inequality in Weekly Earnings Increased in Canada? written by René Morissette and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inequality in weekly earnings increased in Canada in the 1980s, in conjunction with a drop in real hourly wages of young workers, a fall in the percentage of employees working 35-40 hours per week in their main job, a rise in the fraction of employees working 50 hours per week or more, and a growing tendency for highly paid workers to work long workweeks. The paper examines the role of weekly hours of work and the correlation between hourly wage rates and weekly hours in explaining the rise of inequality in weekly earnings in Canada over the last decade. It also documents changes in the distribution of hourly wages, the growth in the dispersion of weekly hours of work, and the increase in the correlation between hourly wages and weekly hours. The paper concludes with a review of the possible factors behind the rise in weekly earnings inequality in Canada.
Book Synopsis Working More? Working Less? by : Marie Drolet
Download or read book Working More? Working Less? written by Marie Drolet and published by Statistics Canada, Analytical Studies Branch. This book was released on 1997 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calculations based on the Survey on Work Reduction of 1985 suggest that if Canadian workers were to voluntarily reduce their workweek, the number of workhours available for redistribution would unlikely be sufficient to both eliminate underemployment and reduce unemployment. The potential for worktime redistribution, as measured by the propensity to desire fewer hours, appears to be greatest (lowest) in age-education groups with relatively low (high) unemployment rates. This implies that the resulting decrease in unemployment and underemployment could be more pronounced in groups where workers are already relatively successful.

Book Synopsis The Intergenerational Income Mobility of Canadian Men by : Miles Corak
Download or read book The Intergenerational Income Mobility of Canadian Men written by Miles Corak and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we use administrative data associated with the tax system to: (1) document the extent of intergenerational income mobility among Canadian men: and (2) estimate the income disadvange (in adulthood) of being raised in a low income household. We find that there is considerable intergenerational income mobility in Canada among middle income earners, but that the inheritance of economic status is significant at both the very top and very bottom of the income distribution. About one-third of those in the bottom quartile were raised by fathers who occupied the same position in the income distribution. In fact, the income advantage of someone who has a father in the top decile over someone who had a father in the bottom decile is in the order of 40%. We also discuss some of the policy implications of these findings, as well as some of their limitations and the directions implied for future research.
