Going to university used to be a passport to future success, but that's no longer the case. For some students,…
it's still a good choice that leads to a successful career, but for many their degrees are worthless pieces of paper.

The authors set out to explore the many and varied educational opportunities and career paths open to Canadian high school students and those in their twenties. Young adults will gain much insight regarding the path that is best for them: whether to pursue a degree, enrol for skills training, or investigate one of the many other options that are available.

nations exploitées ou opprimées. C'est le résultat de l'ordre mondial institutionnalisé: la prospérité de l'Occident vient en grande partie de l'appauvrissement du reste du globe. Pourtant, les positions antimondialisation actuelles sont trop souvent synonymes de fermeture des frontières et de repli sur soi. Pour faire contrepoids, Maïka Sondarjee développe une position internationale pour la gauche qui est réellement solidaire avec les nations du Sud: l'internationalisme radical. Avec cette vision anticapitaliste, décoloniale et féministe de la coopération internationale, elle souhaite intégrer l'Autre au coeur de nos préoccupations. Une invitation à décoloniser la solidarité internationale et à envisager une transition globale juste, seule façon de ne pas perdre le Sud
