The term has latterly been used as a generic shorthand for groups of young people disproportionately affected by [[economic]] shocks, often involving lengthy periods of unemployment, such as those affected by the Global financial crisis of 2008–2009.[1][2]. This is partly based on [[evidence]] that it can be difficult for those affected to get back into employment when economic activity picks up.
