Autor Ed Howker, Shiv Maliken Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 sep 2013
‘Should
be
read
as
a
strident
call
to
arms
for
a
partially
disenfranchised
generation
that
is
burdened
with
debt.’The
Times
‘No parent can dismiss this argument about our collective failure to invest in the future’ The Guardian
Why
are
so
many
adult
children
living
still
living
with
mum
and
dad?
Why
do
young
people
seem
so
disinterested
in
politics?
And
what
are
the
hidden
threats
to
Britain’s
long-term
prosperity
lurking
in
the
next
few
decades?‘No parent can dismiss this argument about our collective failure to invest in the future’ The Guardian
First published in 2010, Ed Howker and Shiv Mailk’sJilted Generationanswers fundamental questions about the society you thought you knew. It identified, for the first time, the perilous position of Britain’s young adults and, with a title brandished by everyone from Ed Miliband to student protesters, the book’s thesis has formed a controversial but essential part of Britain’s political debate.
With significant additional material, this edition updates the argument and explains the real effects of austerity policies and the recession. And, crucially, it explains what must be done to protect a vital and underestimated national asset – Britain’s newest adults.
