An examination of age-related processes at a critical point in the life course. It combines a theoretical understanding of labour market and household/demographic processes to offer a new and coherent explanation of change in the transition from youth to adulthood.
First Published in 1995. This original and timely analysis of the transition from youth to adulthood breaks with traditional ideas about the labour market and demographic processes and makes an important and general contribution to understanding social change. Significant developments in the timing and experience of transition have not been satisfactorily addressed, nor understood in relation to general change in household and employment structure, Using primary data gathered in a survey of young adults and their parents, and existing evidence on the organisation of employment and demographic trends, the author analyses developments in the social organisation of dependence, independence and obligation. Delayed parenting and other aspects of the ''rights of passage'' are explored in depth, and explained within their wider social context.
