Culture, Capitals and Graduate Futures: Degrees of class: Research into Higher Education
Autor Ciaran Burkeen Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 aug 2015
Framed within the current context of increasing levels of university graduates and the falling numbers of graduate positions available in the UK labour market, this book provides a critical examination of the supposedly linear and meritocratic relationship between higher education and graduate employment proposed by official discourses from government at both local and national levels.
Through a critical engagement with the empirical findings, Culture, Capitals and Graduate Futures asks important questions for the effective continuation of the widening participation agenda. This timely book will be of interest to higher education professionals working within widening participation policy and higher education policy.

Descriere
The idea of a linear progression from higher education to graduate employment is the basis on which policies such as widening participation and increase in tuition fees have been predicated. However, there is a disconnect between policy and experience as issues of social and class barriers into graduate employment have consistently persisted, with graduates facing an unemployment rate of up to 40%. This book uses graduate case studies to explore what other forms of capital influence graduates’ trajectories. These factors are framed within a greater "cultural" reading of class, appreciating the interconnectedness between class, gender, race and ethnicity.
