Features: Youth are a group with a strong sense of innovation and high initiative, thus playing a significant role in promoting overall societal progress. At the same time, they have just transitioned from the stage of being under others' guardianship to the quasi-adult phase, where their political, economic, social, and cultural roles have yet to be established. Therefore, society as a whole needs to pay special attention to them. This book investigates and analyzes numerous specific youth social issues, holding both academic exploration and political practice significance for the advancement of youth research and policy adjustments at the policy level.
Youth are an active social group and also the future of society. During periods of rapid societal change, some youth are marginalized into vulnerable groups, a reality that is harsh and a problem worth serious reflection. "Research on the Status of Vulnerable Urban Youth in China and Social Protection Policies" reveals the living conditions of this vulnerable segment of youth with an objective attitude and scientific methods, analyzing the adverse effects of their disadvantaged situation on their growth and social order. This holds significant importance for understanding the youth group scientifically. The study clarifies the social protection role of China's youth policies in fostering the growth of the youth population while also pointing out existing shortcomings, offering both theoretical and practical value for the development of youth social policies in China. The research findings are rich in data and provide in-depth, well-reasoned analysis, making it worth reading.
