Abstract	"The mid-term review of the EU's Lisbon Strategy to achieve a competitive and cohesive knowledge-based society has shown that young people have profited less from inclusion and active labour market policies than other age groups. In the Framework of the Social Inclusion Programme the inclusion of disadvantaged youth became a key priority in 2003 and a Thematic Study on Policy Measures concerning Disadvantaged Youth was commissioned to contribute to the Process of Open Method of Coordination. This study was coordinated by the Institute for Regional Innovation and Social Research in collaboration with a network of experts. The study involves 13 member states and accession countries - Austria, Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and the UK - each of which was represented by a national expert. Focusing in particular on youth unemployment and early school leaving it centres around four key questions: 1. What are the socio-economic characteristics of disadvantaged youth? 2. What are the key problems of the transition of disadvantaged youth from school to work? 3. What impact do both inclusion and active labour market policies have? 4. What are the causes of success or failure of policies to support disadvantaged youth? The analysis is based on three types of data: - national information and data gathered according to joint guidelines; - European statistical data, mainly drawn from the Eurostat Labour Force Survey; - case studies of policies identified as good practice." Die Untersuchung enthält quantitative Daten. Forschungsmethode: deskriptive Studie; empirisch-quantitativ; empirisch. Die Untersuchung bezieht sich auf den Zeitraum 2000 bis 2004.
