Valerie Visanich explores the close affinity of this concept to neoliberalism in contemporary societies, specifically by focusing on changes in education and employment. Using Beck \u0026amp; Beck-Gernsheim's concept of individualization to refer to increased freedom in one's life choices yet at the same time increased risks, Visanich unpacks the trajectories of life experiences of tertiary educated millennials in the contemporary neoliberal Anglo-American setting in relation to recent cultural and socio-economic changes. She examines how this individualized mode is adopted and adapted in countries across Southern Europe including Italy, Spain, Portugal, Malta and Greece - in locations where cultural conditions habitually cushion-out, often by family networks and patronage, some of the burdens of being young today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Valerie Visanich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350192481\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350192485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.40d","brand":"Valerie Visanich","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44071391822079,"sku":"9781350192485","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5304f5a8-2ce6-4bdd-ad96-ca655f0f8b23.jpg?v=1685435821","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/education-individualization-and-neoliberalism-valerie-visanich-9781350192485","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
