Resumen del Recurso

Globalisation and the decline of traditional men’s jobs
  1. External factor
    1. Generalises all boys
      1. Decline largely in working-class jobs
        1. These jobs require few if any qualifications
          1. Unlikely that the disappearance of such jobs would have such impact on boys motivation to obtain qualifications
        2. Stereotypes all boys as the same
          1. Since the 1980s there has been a significant decline in heavy industries (eg shipbuilding, mining, etc)
            1. This is partly the result of the globalisation of the economy
              1. Traditionally these sectors mainly employed men
            2. Mitsos and Browne claim that this decline in male employment opportunities has lead to an ‘identity crisis for men ‘
              1. Many boys now have little prospect of getting a ‘proper’ job
                1. Undermines their motivation and self-esteem, so they give up on trying to get qualifications
