Resumen:Este artículo contribuye a la reflexión sobre la responsabilidad de la intervención socioeducativa con jóvenes en sus transiciones al mercado de trabajo. La reflexión que se realiza es doble: Por una parte, una fundamentación antropológica sobre el sujeto, su voluntad y su capacidad de decisión, que ha de ser la consideración principal de cualquier intervención educativa. Por otra parte, la revisión de la tradición alemana de la práctica socioeducativa, de la Educación Social como ciencia de la educación, y de la tensión que provoca el encargo que la sociedad le hace, en términos de control y de promoción de las capacidades del sujeto en situación de riesgo. A partir de algunos  ejemplos tomados de la práctica de la formación e intermediación en el marco de los programas de transición, se proponen una serie de principios reguladores de la intervención para salvaguardar su carácter educativo frente a una posible instrumentalización que resulta perjudicial para el sujeto, así como para el mercado de trabajo. Abstract:This paper is a contribution to the reflection upon the responsibility underlying socioeducational practice with Young people in their transitions into the labor market. This reflection is twofold: On the one side, it consists of an anthropological justification on the subject, his/her will and his/her ability to take decisions, which is behind any socioeducational intervention. On other side, the paper reviews the German tradition on Social Education as one among the educational sciences, and the tensión it suffers upon the mandate received from society, consisting of a control practice as well as an empowering one, particularly with people at risk. Upon several examples taken from training practice within programs framed by transition systems, the author suggests a series of principles ruling intervention in order to guarantee its true educational value before any instrumentalization which ends up damaging both the subject as well as the labor market.

The main objective of the article is to discuss the forgotten works of Wojciech Żukrowski written for young people. The author is remembered by young readers as the one who created the fairy places of Tiutiurlistan and Blabancja (from the novels of Porwanie w Tiutiurlistanie [Kidnapping in Tiutiurlistan] and Na tronie w Blabonie [On the Throne in Blabon] and collected Vietnamese legends (Ognisko w dżungli [Fire in the Jungle]). However, Żukrowski wrote numerous texts addressed to children and young people which did not gain so much popularity, such as two modern novels of Słoneczne lato [Sunny Summer] (1952) and Poszukiwacze skarbów [Treasure Hunters] (1954), a “Vientamese” short story Mój przyjaciel słoń [My Friend the Elephant] (1957) as well as historical novels Szabla Gabrysia [Sabre Gabriela] (1952) and a short poem Bal w agreście [The Ball in a Goosberry Field] (1943). The article analyses the present titles and poses a very important question concerning the causes of the works being so unsuccessful. It is stated in the summary of the article that the forgotten works by Żukrowski written for young people are not devoid of values and comprise numerous aesthetic qualities (Bal w agreście), cognitive values (Poszukiwacze skarbów, Mój przyjaciel słoń) or educational values (Słoneczne lato or Mój przyjaciel słoń). The works by Wojciech Żukrowski analysed in the article are, however, anachronistic for a modern reader and outdated mainly due to the subject matter they tackle as well as included socrealistic elements.

Nowadays, schools have a project for young people to acquire a taste and a habit of reading. However, it is also necessary that the educational community is configured as an important piece of the network of reading. For this reason, it is essential to show young people a variety of literature texts to learn and appreciate all literary genres. Probably, the play is the least consumed by teenagers, because they associate that kind of text to the theatrical production, and also, they omit the pleasure of reading it. In this sense, it is important that teachers, professionals and families promote reading plays. In this paper, we examine and describe the project Teatro en red from the perspective of its founders. The teacher blog has the aim to disseminate contemporary theatre and, at the same time, it expects to bring young people to the dramatic world from different perspectives.Specifically, we will focus on promoting reading and we will make a special emphasis on educational and cultural strategies pursued by the blog. In this case, we have used a qualitative methodology to make, on the one hand, a holistic understanding of the subject matter and, secondly, to respond to objectives of the study. With respect to the techniques of data collection, we have used the interview to reveal the voices of two teachers and, also, we have utilised the document analysis to know in depth the blog. For analysis of the data collected, we have started a systematic approach and, also, we have used a process of encoding to set the dimensions and categories that illustrate the work of teachers. In conclusion, we will discover that the blog is a social tool accessible to tell stories and, also, to form a reader taste in theatre between young people.

The relevance of the study of the social activity of young people presented in the article in the context of the subject-activity approach is determined by the need for psychological justification of programs meant to implement it in the significant areas of public life. The purpose of the study is to identify the subject and activity characteristics that determine the social activity of the students, depending on the type of its orientation. The study was conducted on a sample of young people aged 15-25 years ( n = 229). The two types of social activity were identified: the one aimed at the realization of personal aspirations and interests (“for own benefit”) and the one aimed at the achievement of socially significant goals (“for others’ benefit”). The subject characteristics of these types of activity were studied using the personality self-determination test by B. Sheldon as modified by E.N. Osin, the questionnaire for the study of the subjectivity structure by E.N. Volkova and I.A. Seregina, the methodology “The Level of Development of Personality Subjectivity” by M.A. Schukina. The activity self-organization questionnaire by E.Yu. Mandrikova and the author’s questionnaire, the reliability of which is confirmed by the results of positional analysis, were used to study the activity characteristics. It is shown that the social activity of young people is largely due to activity characteristics. The social activity aimed “for own benefit” is more highly determined by the subjective characteristics of the person, compared to the activity aimed “for others’ benefit”. The universal determinants of the social activity of students, which do not depend on the types of its orientation and have a common predictive potential, are revealed. These include the level characteristic of the personality’s subjectivity “creative - standard” and the characteristics of activity - “initia- tive in activity”, “solution of socially-oriented tasks” and “self-organization (through external means)”. In the structure of the activity the factors “activity content”, “social responsibility” and “satisfaction with the result of activity” were also attributed to the sustainably expressed determinants of the social activity aimed “for own benefit”. The activity characteristics “striving for success, self-affirmation”, “striving for confidence, self-improvement”, “satisfying own needs”, “complying with social requirements”, “insistence”, “focusing on the present”, as well as the characteristic of the non-situational subjectivity of the personality “freedom of choice and responsibility for it” became the determinants of activity aimed “for others’ benefit”.

The education of young people is one of the recurring themes of Jane Austen's novels. In all her works there are references to the consequences of the education received or its shortcomings. This is a determining factor in the development of personality and Austen, who focuses her novels on people, places great importance on it. In this article, we will analyze the abundant references Austen makes on the subject of education and we will offer some information on this aspect in her sociocultural context, differentiating between education as a person's formation, on the one hand, and the acquisition of knowledge and skills on the other.

The elements of youth policy in Poland and the Netherlands were also presented. The hypothesis adopted in the paper was that the decisions of young people in the labor market are mainly influenced by short-term financial aspects. Materials and methods: The observations and assessments used in the article were formulated based on the research literature on the subject, the statistical data collected by the institutions of Poland, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the European Union, a questionnaire survey and own experiences gained from mobility. Results: The article outlines the course of migration trends of Poles and presents the causes of changes in the choice of the destination country for migration. It presents factors encouraging young people to take up employment in the country and those encouraging them to search a job abroad, specifically in the Netherlands. The barriers and facilities that may be encountered by young people seeking employment in the labor market in both countries were indicated. The reasons for the emigration of young people from Poland were discussed based on the results of the current study, that is a 400-person research sample obtained from an online survey. The aim of the study was to identify three important factors influencing the decision to emigrate and to evaluate this decision. Conclusions: The conducted analysis shows the complexity of the problems of migration of young people.

The issue of the shortage of qualifi ed workers is of relevant importance in the Russian labor market. The modern labor market in the Russian Federation is in dire need of workforce. The market economy places high demands on the quality of the workforce, its professionalism, educational and qualification level. In conditions of fierce competition in the labor market for specialists, jobs at manufacturing enterprises are often unoccupied for various reasons. On the one hand, companies offering vacancies for blue-collar workers cannot find employees with sufficient qualifi cations. On the other hand, people who have received a vocational profession cannot ensure the fulfi llment of important production orders at the proper level, due to the lack of the necessary qualifications. Thirdly, young people prefer to work anywhere, but not in the field they studied. The article is devoted to the key issues of training specialists at the present stage. Research methods include a comprehensive analysis of statistical data and articles on resolving the problem of the workforce shortage, ways to solve the problem of the provision of proper qualification level in vocational specialties, increasing the prestige of vocational professions and motivating young people to work in the field of industrial production. As a result of the analysis carried out in the article, the author concludes that a positive change in this direction can be achieved only under the condition of an integrated approach to the problem and involvement of all interested parties in its solution. Meanwhile, the main emphasis should be placed on early vocational guidance, motivation and incentivization of young people and students, and increasing the prestige of vocational occupations.

The article examines one of the most striking speeches of the Demosthenes corps, which was often quoted by ancient authors: LIX “Against Neaira,” conventionally believed to be authored by Apollodorus. Although this speech, as well as the trial where it was presented, has repeatedly become the subject of historiographic commentary and discussion, not a single specialized work has been devoted to it in Russian. The trial against Neaira and her partner Stephanos is of interest not only because it is the only surviving case on charges of illegal acquisition of Athenian citizenship, and the plaintiff ’s speech allows us to reconstruct a number of important aspects of legal proceedings in Athens (litigants’ behavior, arguments, witnesses, evidence, etc.). The prosecutor also reveals certain unappealing aspects of the daily life of Greek society in terms of attitudes to women, prostitution and pedophilia. The speaker divides women into three categories: wife, concubine (παλλακή) and hetaera. Neaira successfully handled the roles of hetaera and concubine. It is unknown whether Apollodorus had managed to impose on her the role of a legal wife — the one that would put Neaira at risk of being sold into slavery. Despite the weakness of the prosecution’s arguments and evidence, Apollodorus, who skillfully used the concept of polis rules, family identity and religious values, as well as dikastes’ prejudices, could have become the winner. However, presenting sufficiently convincing counter- arguments and testimonies may not have been difficult for Stephanos, although, perhaps, an appeal to the mercy and pity of the judges would have been a more efficient way to achieve his goal.

Abstract The importance of the development of vocational education has been highlighted by the European Commission through the communication “Rethinking education” and the one regarding the fight against unemployment among young people. Based on the study of the specialized literature, a number of relevant aspects were identified, regarding the importance of the education and training of the people in relation to the creation of new successful business models but also the importance of studying the profile, attitude and perception of future employees (Generation Z). In Brașov county, Romania, the dual education system was implemented in 2012 and since that moment, the number of both students enrolled and schools grew. This article will show the results of a study case made on the dual system school on tourism, obtained through a questionnaire addressed to students that are participating in dual training, to reveal their perception on this education system. This scientific approach aims to highlight the pros and cons according to the perception of the next employees. Most young people have problems finding their first job, and the practice in business units, specific to the dual education system, can prove to be very attractive to both them and the employers. The importance of the subject in this article derives from both the actuality and the importance of this problem, as well as the fact that in many countries, the system of dual education is relatively “young”.
