Living on a prayer in the Eurozone
Living on a prayer in the Eurozone - as youth unemployment crisis deepens. Figures out on friday revealed that unemployment in the single currency zone has reached record levels.
Unemployment in the Eurozone has reached new records, with young people being the worst affected. In countries such as Greece and Spain, youth unemployment now exceeds 50%. We hear from graduates in Italy about the problems they face in finding a job, and we examine the psychological effects of being out of work. We also speak to American singer-songwriter and occasional politcal activist Amanda Palmer, who tells us about her own experiences trying to find work - and about the remarkably successful crowdsourcing experiment that funded her latest album.
