Abstract

The article discusses the international issue of unemployment among young people in 2012 and offers some suggestions for the creation of jobs. It states that the global financial crisis of the early 21st century and the subsequent Great Recession have significantly limited the employment options for many millions of people worldwide, including young people in Greece, England, and the Middle East. According to the article, excessive labor protections, high birthrates, and a lack of training and skills are all contributing factors to the high unemployment figures.
