Abstract
From a base of active trade union involvement, the authors in this piece take an historical look at Job Creation, YOP, the rise of the MSC and the culmination of these in YTS (the new Youth Training Scheme launched in September). They describe and critically appraise YTS and look at the difficulties and contradictions of trade union involvement. They try to meet head-on the controversial issue of whether or not YTS should be rejected outright by the unions or if there is a case for its acceptance in the hope of changing it from within. Their conclusions provide food for thought for many people currently working on the left.Keywords
