Book Description
Depuis plusieurs décennies, les parcours scolaires, d'insertion professionnelle et de vie tendent à se complexifier, si bien que la question de l'orientation des jeunes devient saillante et soulève des défis inédits. Les « choix » d'orientation résultent en effet d'une articulation complexe, parfois contrastée, entre influences contextuelles et questionnements d'ordre individuel. D'emblée, tant les institutions scolaires que le marché du travail cadrent et canalisent la manière dont les jeunes se développent et font leurs choix de carrière. En même temps, ces choix émanent de leurs représentations et anticipations de soi, autrement dit de la manière dont les jeunes construisent, ou tentent de construire, leur identité. Les contributions du présent ouvrage, divisé en deux parties, décortiquent cette tension entre influences contextuelles et agir individuel. Il est ainsi possible de mieux saisir plusieurs des enjeux, des processus et des moments clés qui marquent l'orientation et les parcours des jeunes. Dans la première partie, il est question des parcours scolaires, c'est-à-dire du cheminement et des choix des jeunes à l'intérieur même et à différents paliers du système éducatif. La deuxième partie est ensuite consacrée au passage du monde scolaire au monde du travail – assimilé parfois au monde adulte – c'est-à-dire à leurs parcours d'insertion socioprofessionnelle.

Book Description
Les transformations du marché du travail et de l'organisation du travail observées depuis maintenant quelques décennies ont eu des impacts sur les parcours professionnels et de vie de nombreux travailleurs et travailleuses. Si ces transformations sont relativement bien connues dans leurs aspects plus généraux (p. ex. économiques, sociaux), les façons dont elles s'incarnent plus précisément dans les milieux professionnels et les conséquences concrètes qu'elles ont sur la vie de travail des personnes, et sur les personnes elles-mêmes, suscitent encore beaucoup de questions. De même, les défis que posent ces transformations aux travailleurs dans la gestion de leurs transitions et, plus globalement, de leur parcours de vie professionnelle et de leurs rôles de vie ainsi que les nombreux enjeux professionnels et personnels auxquels elles donnent lieu, soulèvent tout autant d'interrogations.

Book Description
The International Journal for Research in Vocational Education and Training (IJRVET) is a double blind peer-reviewed journal for VET-related research. This journal provides full open electronic access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the science community and the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge and the further development of expertise in the field of Vocational Education and Training (understood in a wide sense and also known as e.g. TVET Technical Vocational Education and Training, Professional Education and Training, Career and Technical Education, Workforce Education). All articles can also be downloaded from the IJRVET Homeage: http: //www.ijrvet.net. IJRVET covers all topics of VET-related research from Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Initial Vocational Education and Training (IVET) to Workforce Education and Continuing Vocational Education and Training (CVET).

Book Description
A foundational work on historical and social studies of quantification What accounts for the prestige of quantitative methods? The usual answer is that quantification is desirable in social investigation as a result of its successes in science. Trust in Numbers questions whether such success in the study of stars, molecules, or cells should be an attractive model for research on human societies, and examines why the natural sciences are highly quantitative in the first place. Theodore Porter argues that a better understanding of the attractions of quantification in business, government, and social research brings a fresh perspective to its role in psychology, physics, and medicine. Quantitative rigor is not inherent in science but arises from political and social pressures, and objectivity derives its impetus from cultural contexts. In a new preface, the author sheds light on the current infatuation with quantitative methods, particularly at the intersection of science and bureaucracy.

Book Description
This handbook focuses on and compares the education systems in the three Americas: North, Central and South America, and includes a chapter on most countries in the region. The chapters follow a common structure and include schematic diagrams of the structure of mainstream education from pre-primary to tertiary level. Each chapter starts with a description of the historical and social foundations of the education system from the post-World War II period up to today, including political, economic and cultural contexts and conditions. By highlighting important dates and structural decisions, the current education system can be understood as resulting from past developments. The first part ends with a description of the transitions to the labour market that are offered, and the way in which these are organized in the education system described. The second part consists of an overview of the institutional and organizational principles as well as the structure of education from pre-primary to tertiary level. It includes a focus on legislative bases and financial provisions for the education system and a description of the structure by using the ISCED-classification. It further includes information of the supply of human resources such as teachers and other educators. The third and final part of the handbook discusses selected educational trends and aspects. In this context, three topics are of particular interest: dealing with inequality, ICT and digitization activities, and STEM-related policies and programmes.

Book Description
Between the outbreak of war with Austria in 1792 and Napoleon's final debacle in 1814, France remained almost continously at war, recruiting in the process some two to three million frenchmen--a level of recruitment unknown to previous generations and widely resented as an attack on the liberties of rural communities. Forrest challenges the notion of a nation heroically rushing to arms by examining the massive rates of desertion and avoidance of service as well as their consequences on French society--on military campaigns and the morale of armies, on political opinion at home, on the social fabric of local villages, and on the Napoleonic dream of bringing about a coherent and centralized state.

Book Description
In the late 1950s, like tens of thousands of young men of his generation, Pierre Bourdieu, having recently passed the agrégation in philosophy, found himself immersed in the Algerian war. Motivated by an impulse that, as he himself says, ‘was civic rather than political’, nothing seemed more important to him than to understand the Algerian situation and provide the elements that would enable others to come to an informed judgement about it. In extremely tough conditions and along with a small group of students, Bourdieu undertook a series of studies across an Algeria that was tightly patrolled by the army, leading him to discover the shocking reality of the resettlement camps and to analyse the mechanisms of destruction of Algerian society of which they were emblematic. To achieve the objectives he had set himself, Bourdieu had to carry out a genuine intellectual conversion, acquiring an ethnographic understanding of Algerian society, learning sociological analysis at a breakneck pace and inventing new instruments - both theoretical and empirical - that would enable him to understand the relations of domination specific to colonialism. These new tools also enabled him to analyse the nature of the crisis that the war had both produced and manifested. This unique volume brings together the first texts written by Bourdieu in the midst of the Algerian conflict, as well as later writings and interviews in which he returns to the topic of Algeria and the decisive role it played in the development of his work.
