This book, first published in 2001, is an examination of the changes underway in Western bureaucracies.
The Economics of Junior Wages
There has been considerable debate on the issue of whether junior award rates should either be abolished or modified, in the context of removing age discrimination. This paper examines the economics of junior wages and employment. In particular, some simulations are carried out on the likely impacts of various changes to junior wages. The results suggest that changing the current structure of junior awards would have dramatic effects on youth employment and unemployment. The adverse employment outcomes would impact disproportionately on the most disadvantaged in the youth labour market.

The Youth Labour Market in Australia
The youth labour market in Australia is characterised by low participation rates and predominance of part time employment, as well as high unemployment and underemployment. There has been a significant rise in education participation rates in Australia in recent year, directly linked to the demand for full time teenage employees. Despite teenage unemployment in Australia being twice that of the general population, only a very small proportion of the teenage population in Australia are not in some form of employment or education. This reflects the unique nature of the teenage market. This study investigates both the demand and supply characteristics of the market, and finds that many of the cliches associated with it do not stand up to close examination.
