Nagaland is a state having a weak industrial sector and an underdeveloped agriculture, bulk of the educated population depended on the service sector. We can see that the educational institutions in Nagaland are continuously producing educated youths but employment opportunities are limited in relation to supply of labour. There is no balance between the supply of workers and the demand for their services. Thus, open unemployment occurs because able and willing educated persons are in search of work, but there is no work them and they remain unemployed. This book attempts to address some of the key questions pertaining to educated unemployed youth in the state such as: What is the magnitude and extent of educated unemployment? What are the aspirations and expectations of educated job seekers? What is the probability of an unemployed person to get a job in the state? Are the educated worried about getting a job? How do they view the job market? What are the various problems beset the unemployed youth and the related social consequences? What is their attitude towards the government with regard to the method of-selection to various jabs, the employment exchanges and the present educational system? What is the opinion of the educated youth towards various selfemployment schemes?
