2020
Abstrakt
This study analyses behavioural criteria in public assistance programs under selective targeting to understand young third-country immigrants' (TCIs) transition to work in Austria, Finland and Czech Republic. Unemployed young TCIs in this study are non-EU nationals who voluntarily and legally move to one of the EU member states with visa and residence permits (European Union, 2008).
The main research question of this study is: How do behavioural criteria in the realm of public assistance programs under selective targeting enable young third-country national transition to work? The sub questions are: How does the criteria contrast and (b) what is the implication for immigrants?
