This article deals with the construction of the problem of youth employment in the diagnostic and training documents of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the Labour, Employment and Social Security Ministry of Argentina (MTESS), based on a sociological perspective of the youth condition. This analysis is based on a fundamentally qualitative research in a neighborhood of the city of Córdoba (Argentina). Our study of the documentary sources refers to the theoretical and epistemological assumptions of these speeches, and also to the practical dynamic of the concept of employability in the political intervention in this problem.

Keywords:

sociology of youth condition, employment policies, labor strategies, popular classes, job skills
