New Sources of Employment will soon be the latest research published in our “Work Paper” Collection. It analyses the consequent transformation process following the emergence of New Employment and its perspectives for the 21st century and deals with the current confusion between such terms as emerging occupations, new professions and areas of potential employment amongst others. Taking the original conceptualization of the birth of new employment as a point of departure, we introduce certain initiatives and findings gathered from the European context. In the analysis of the Basque situation, estimations relating to employment and job placement of young people trained in professions which are considered “related” to the New Employment Sources have been included, along with the results of a survey on the development of local initiatives within these areas.
