The contributions collected in this volume take a fresh look at the traditional debate on education, training and labour market outcomes. The quality of education is difficult to measure in the education market and does not always find clear recognition in the labour market. The book provides new empirical evidence on these themes, including data specifically relating to Italy and the UK.
