Summary
Compares the respective programmes to help young people enter the job market: the New Deal for Young People (NDYP), with data from 1998-2004, and the Sofortprogramm gegen Jugendarbeitslosigkeit (JUMP), with data for 1999-2000. Details the conditions of skills training and job-placement assistance. Discusses the training programmes in context of the general political and economic climate, drawing a contrast between Britain's more liberal market economy and Germany's more structured and coordinated regime.
