Despite persistent sub-national variation in youth unemployment rates, the relationship between local labour market conditions and youth labour market outcomes is not well understood. This article explores the consequences of variation in the level and type of demand for labour for the amount of time it takes young people in the United Kingdom to fi nd employment, following departure from full-time education. Survival analysis of British Household Panel Study (BHPS) data covering the period 1998 – 2008 shows that variation in the level (but not the type) of demand for labour is associated with considerable heterogeneity in job search time among less quali fi ed young people, but not their better quali fi ed peers. On average, it takes young people with lower secondary quali fi cations 1 month longer to fi nd employment of any sort and 7 months longer to fi nd secure, full-time employment if they are located in a place of low rather than high labour demand. These fi ndings, which highlight the contextual nature of the risk associated with low educational attainment, point to the need for greater policy focus on bridging spatial mismatch between the location of low quali fi ed young people and the location of secure employment opportunities.

By exploring housing transitions and their impact on the leisure practices of 12, white, British economically ‘ middling ’ men aged between 20 and 26 whilst utilising the work of British cultural theorist Raymond Williams, this article articulates a cultural studies critique of social generational approaches. Firstly, it shows how this approach to young lives can remedy the ‘ base ’ determining ‘ superstructure ’ logic underpinning social generational approaches. Secondly, drawing on Williams ’ concepts can foreground culture as constitutive of contemporary transitional pathways. Finally, this approach can continue the impetus of ‘ blending ’ of cultural and transitional approaches found within social generational approaches. Doing so will show how a cultural studies approach can help supplement insights into continuity and change within contemporary young lives whilst still enabling a critical focus on class, gender and race. Taken together, this article looks to enable a productive engagement with social generational approaches to critically interrogate the experiences of young people in ever-changing social, cultural, economic and political contexts.

ABSTRACT Adolescents’ aspirations are important for a healthy transition into adulthood. Knowledge about girls’ aspirations and their formation in a low-income context is scant. Framed within life course theory, this qualitative study aimed to understand adolescent girls’ life aspirations, with a specific focus on school, work, family life, health and diets, and explore how aspirations are shaped within girls’ everyday life context, in Nawalpur and Parasi, two districts in the plains of Western Nepal. Data collection involved interviewing 17 adolescent girls (11–19 years) using creative elicitation techniques: timeline drawing and network mapping. Thematic analyses revealed unique aspiration profiles of younger, older, and married adolescent girls. While younger girls were present-oriented and aspired high, older girls balanced aspirations with reality and in turn, adjusted their aspirations. Married women had mostly resigned themselves to their present lives and transferred their lost aspirations onto their children. Findings underscore how girls’ feelings, others in their daily lives, gendered norms, and structural factors, are related to different domains of aspirations during different stages of adolescence. Results give direction to integrated policies and programs that aim to sustain and cultivate adolescent girls’ aspirations at specific stages of adolescence.
