Rethinking Graduate Employability in Context

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This book offers critical multidisciplinary analyses of graduate employability, which have thus far been scarce and often scattered. The book examines employability from macro, meso and micro perspectives: higher education policy, the labour market, higher education institutions, organisations, individuals and social groups. The multinational analyses include chapters that examine employability in European, North American and Australian contexts. Thus, the book aims to provide a multifaceted social and contextual analysis of graduate employability as a theoretical concept, as a discourse and policy imperative, and as a social and discursive practice. The book is divided into three different parts that examine employability from the perspective of theory and discourse, policy and the graduate labour market, and as a career and identity process. Moreover, it introduces novel methodological perspectives to study graduate employability as a process.
