This research project addresses, from an interdisciplinary perspective, poverty and exclusion of young people in Spain. The purpose of this research is to figure out the logic behind the processes of impoverishment and social exclusion affecting young people, and how the young people affected live their experience. The nature of social processes we investigated involved the triangulation of data and methods. The results of this research design are subjected to mechanical tests.
The research objectives are:
- Comparing poverty and youth exclusion between different regions of Spain, with its various social protection and inclusive citizenshipsystems.
- To characterize the current state school system, the labor market and social intervention network of these different regions.
- Identify the different types of youth who are affected by the new poverty and social exclusion.
