Abstract

This paper analyzes the dynamics of the youth labor market in Tunisia by using statistical data from the different labor force surveys between 1990 and 2014. The results obtained show that unemployment among graduates is not only the cause of Social and political movements which have led to the fall of several Arab regimes but also it has painful consequences on the economy of a country. The aim is to prevent firms and countries from innovating and developing comparative advantages based on investment in human resources, thereby jeopardizing their future from improved employment policies in this country.
