Conclusion: Growing Up into Uncertain Futures.Highly Commended in the Society of Educational Studies Book Prize This book explores how economic changes and the growing importance of educational qualifications in a shrinking labour market, particularly effects marginalized young men. It follows a group of young working-class men in a de-industrial community and challenges commonly held representations that often appear in the media and in policy discourses which portray them as feckless, out of control, educational failures and lacking aspiration. Ward argues that for a group of young men in a community of social and economic deprivation, expectations and transitions to adulthood are framed through the industrial legacy of geographically and historically shaped class and gender codes. These codes have an impact on what it means to be a man and what behaviour is deemed acceptable and what is not.Palgrave Studies in Gender and Education,2524-6453SexEducational sociologySocial structureEqualityEducation, HigherGender StudiesSociology of EducationSocial StructureHigher EducationSex.Educational sociology.Social structure.Equality.Education, Higher.Gender Studies.Sociology of Education.Social Structure.Higher Education.370.9429EDU025000EDU038000SOC018000SOC050000bisacshWard Michael R.Mauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1794160BOOK9910954748303321From Labouring to Learning4334705UNINA
