| Resumo: | This paper aims to discuss the relation between educational policies and juvenile protagonism regarding the generation called “Nem Nem”, that is to say, young people who neither study nor work. It takes into account the New Public Management context seeking to identify the influence of the neoliberal mainstream of this new management over the propositions related to young people’s activity in the job market. This is an exploratory study whose results showed that young people are one of the population segments that are most affected by social and, mainly, economical changes that have been happening since 2000. Youth empowerment and a focus on education have shaped one of the greatest concerns of those who rule the country. These two factors have been overrated by governments and seen as the solution to social inequalities, poverty control, illiteracy reduction and the promotion of economic and social development. |
