Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the lived experiences of urban young people as they navigate their educational transitions by tackling temporal orientations, futurity, social class, parenting, youth agency and emotional practices. Grounded in empirical data, this book contextualizes the educational transitions within the broader contexts of biography, temporality and family. Moving beyond conventional views that frame educational transitions as simple outcomes, this book



repositions them as processes of negotiation involving young people, families and schools. By focusing on the social aspects of educational transition, this work reveals individuals’ engagement within educational and temporality norms, class hierarchies, family relationship environment that contribute to processes of educational biography construction. It underscores strategies, constraints, interdependence, emotions, challenges and vulnerabilities during young people’s navigation of education transitions. Aimed at researchers, educators and policymakers, this book provides insights into the intersections of temporality, education and family, illuminating the complexities and the reproduction of new and persistent inequalities of decision-making and trajectories orientation within educational system for contemporary young people.

Nota di contenuto

Characteristics of Complex Intracontinental Sedimentary Basins -- The Central European Basin System – an Overview -- Strain and Temperature an Space and Time -- Basin Fill -- Salt Dynamics -- Fluid Systems.

Sommario/riassunto

Sedimentary basins host, among others, most of our energy and fresh-water resources: they can be regarded as large geo-reactors in which many physical and chemical processes interact. Their complexity can only be well understood in well-organized interdisciplinary co-operations. This book documents how researchers from different geo-scientific disciplines have jointly analysed the structural, thermal, and sedimentary evolution as well as fluid dynamics of a complex sedimentary basin system which has experienced a variety of activation and reactivation impulses as well as intense salt tectonics. In this book we have summarized our geological, geophysical and geochemical understanding of some of the most important processes affecting sedimentary basins in general and our view on the evolution of one of the largest, best explored and most complex continental sedimentary basins on Earth: The Central European Basin System.
