We focus on responsibilisation, the process by which responsibility for outcomes is transferred from the state to the individual, through a combination of policy actions and the framing of public discourse. We use Australia as a case study to examine how the state has recast its role in the creation and regulation of employment. We outline how the role of the state now involves guiding the citizen towards the “right choice\", with individuals responsible for and active managers of risk in the labour market. To determine the complex narratives around agency, we examine the assumptions embedded in some current Australian government career guidance websites, to highlight how jobseeker autonomy, self-direction, agency, and self-management are framed. The implications for socially just career development provision are discussed.","PeriodicalId":9352,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Guidance & Counselling","volume":"29 1","pages":"557 - 576"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90601109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a critical discourse analysis using a policy analysis framework that revealed four emergent problem representations. These exposed tacit assumptions about students’ lack of employability skills and the responsibilisation of ‘employability’, amplified silences around opportunity structures and highlighted unquestioned expectations about employability in the neoliberalist paradigm. The need for critical discourse is foregrounded, as is the importance of collective engagement in reframing these narratives. Design Thinking shows promise as a novel intervention for future career education practice, enabling practitioners and individuals to begin to co-create a new critical consciousness.","PeriodicalId":9352,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Guidance & Counselling","volume":"27 1","pages":"631 - 646"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82416264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of a detailed focus on career development learning in childhood, speci fi cally intentional learning, has been identi fi ed for some time as “ a missed opportunity ” (Porfeli & Lee, 2012, p. 20). This gap becomes more evident as the literature on children ’ s career development continues to evolve its focus to diverse populations and diverse contextual and systemic factors that may impact such development. Concomitant with an increase in the literature on children ’ s career development are ongoing attempts at identify-ing core development career constructs in children ’ s career development (Oliveira et al., 2017). The call for a more speci fi c focus on career development learning in childhood is timely for several reasons. One is the persistent suggestion that there is a need to understand more holistically how learning (both unintentional and intentional) and development interrelate in children ’ s career development. A second reason is that the literature has predominantly focused on unintentional learning to date (Crause et al., 2017), despite an understanding that intentional learning during the career exploration stage of childhood can enhance later lifespan career development (Porfeli & Lee, 2012; Watson et al., 2016).

McMahon, Mark Watson","doi":"10.1080/03069885.2022.2062701","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/03069885.2022.2062701","url":null,"abstract":"Children are commonly asked by adults “what do you want to be when you grow up?”. Most adults can remember what they, as a child, aspired to be when they grew up. Childhood, the upper age limit for which is widely agreed to be 14 years (Watson & McMahon, 2017), has long been recognised as an important site of career development learning that may provide a foundation for subsequent life stages (e.g. Ginzberg, Ginsburg, Axelrad, & Herma, 1951; Super, 1990). Aspirations develop from a young age in childhood (Flouri et al., 2017). Despite this, career development in childhood has traditionally received less attention in theory, research and practice than career development in adolescence and adulthood (Crause et al., 2017). In recent decades however, there has been an increasing body of literature on children’s career development, culminating in the publication of the first book to solely focus on this lifespan, Career exploration and development in childhood: Perspectives from theory, practice and research (Watson & McMahon, 2017). A guide for educators that focuses on career development learning for children in the early years has also been published (Cahill & Furey, 2017). In addition, recognising the important role that parents play in children’s career development and how childhood experiences can shape their futures, the Australian Government published a set of online resources for parents (Commonwealth of Australia Department of Education, Skills and Employment, 2021). As reflected in the contributions to this special issue, interest in and research on children’s career development has recently taken a more international flavour and contextual and systemic factors that impact children’s career development are receiving more attention in recent research. A better understanding of children’s career development by identifying and assessing core developmental constructs has also been emphasised in recent research (Oliveira et al., 2017). Childhood is an ideal time to foster career development learning through career exploration, specifically as committing to a career choice is not appropriate for this developmental age (Porfeli & Lee, 2012). Evidence points to the relevance of career development learning for this developmental phase of the lifespan, with enhancing career development in childhood providing a strong foundation for career development across the lifespan (Watson et al., 2016). Indeed, limited career exploration in childhood and stereotypical career awareness may impede career development in subsequent life stages (Watson & McMahon, 2008). The need to intentionally assist children with their career development learning has long been recognised (e.g. Super, 1983). A focus on career development learning may encourage a more holistic perspective of the recursive interrelationship of learning, development, and experience in childhood. For example, from children’s incidental observation and interaction with people and the world around them ","PeriodicalId":9352,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Guidance & Counselling","volume":"5 1","pages":"345 - 350"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73128605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the field’s psychological tradition, career guidance practices often adopt highly individualised notions of agency that fail to grasp the contextual factors and societal structures from which agency emerges. In this article an alternative approach to agency is offered by repositioning agency as a relational phenomenon. First, based on the findings of an ethnography that focuses on career guidance for youth in the margins of education and work, I explore how agency emerges as a relational and joint construction. A concept of co-agency is elaborated to express the embedded, co-constructed and political nature of agency.","PeriodicalId":9352,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Guidance & Counselling","volume":"13 1","pages":"547 - 556"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78470580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Critical psychology is particularly concerned with understanding the concrete lines of action that can support generalised human agency – a focus that is highly relevant when studying how career guidance can support agency within various target groups. This foundation in critical psychology supports an analytical strategy guided by an exploration of the relationship between subjective meanings, reasons and societal conditions in qualitative empirical data. We illustrate the analytical process with a case and discuss which types of questions critical psychology can help explore within guidance research and which discussions it can facilitate among researchers, practitioners and policymakers.","PeriodicalId":9352,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Guidance & Counselling","volume":"57 1","pages":"491 - 502"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84876327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
