About this book

This lively, ethnographic study examines the transition, experiences and cultural identities developed amongst a group of young working class people, as they make their way through the established government training schemes. The book uncovers a series of distinct transitions into the world of work, discusses their wider effects on the home, community, leisure, politics, sexuality and ethnicity and assesses the influence such changes will have upon the future of the labour movement.
