abstract = "Changes in European and German social and labour market policies have particular consequences for the transition into adulthood of disadvantaged young people. This paper discusses these effects, especially as they impinge upon those who, as a result of such changes, leave social care earlier than planned. In so doing, they often come under the provisions of the employment promotion system, which provides insufficient support for them in light of their difficult life circumstances. By employing autobiographical narratives and reconstructions, the consequences of these sociopolitical changes are described in detail. Three typical {"}trap situations{"} are created under such conditions for young adults and their educational facilitators. These will be explained with reference to case studies.",

This paper discusses these effects, especially as they impinge upon those who, as a result of such changes, leave social care earlier than planned. In so doing, they often come under the provisions of the employment promotion system, which provides insufficient support for them in light of their difficult life circumstances. By employing autobiographical narratives and reconstructions, the consequences of these sociopolitical changes are described in detail. Three typical "trap situations" are created under such conditions for young adults and their educational facilitators. These will be explained with reference to case studies.
