Change in Wage Returns over Business Cycles 330 $aArgentina's youth are an important, but to a certain extent untapped, resource for development. Over 2 million (31 percent) have already engaged in risky behaviors, and another 1 million (15 percent) are exposed to risk factors that are correlated with eventual risky behaviors. This totals 46 percent of youth at some form of risk. This book addresses the risks faced by youth in Argentina as well as the policy options for addressing them. 410 0$aWorld Bank country study. 606 $aYouth$zArgentina$xSocial conditions 606 $aYoung adults$zArgentina$xSocial conditions 615 0$aYouth$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aYoung adults$xSocial conditions. 676 $a305.2350982 712 02$aWorld Bank. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820914903321 996 $aArgentine youth$93924276 997 $aUNINA
