An account of the impact of restructuring on the training of young people as they move from school to the labour market, this book pays particular attention to the Youth Taining Scheme. Drawing on case studies of young people in Coventry, Mizen shows how the state uses the "training form" to provide cheap, flexible and disposable workers engaged in low-skilled and repetitive forms of work experience, reproducing a young working class that is fragmented and subject to the discipline of capital.
