This book brings together research on the issue of unemployment with a focus on its nature, causes, and the strategies that are currently being utilized in various jurisdictions to combat it. The issue is complex and multidimensional and is a serious challenge in both developing and developed countries. The chapters in the book highlight in a nuanced way the key theoretical aspects of the problem, the attempts that have been made in specific countries to measure its extent, the shortcomings of these efforts, and better metrics that can be applied to analyze it. This is important because measurement of unemployment is a critical step in successfully formulating and targeting policies that can be effective in remedying it. An important strength of the book is its empirical orientation and its illumination of aspects that are easy to gloss over, such as people with disabilities who are a valuable and underutilized resource but who are often ignored in the discourse on development and labor markets. Furthermore, the book addresses critical emerging issues such as the implications of globalization and social and technological change on unemployment. The book is rich in the breadth of policies presented, thus making it particularly useful to diverse audiences such as legislators, academic researchers, policymakers, and students of economics, development, public policy, and project design and management.
This volume brings together a massive body of much-needed research information on a problem of crucial importance to labor economists, policy makers, and society in general: unemployment among the young. The thirteen studies detail the ambiguity and inadequacy of our present standard statistics as applied to youth employment, point out the error in many commonly accepted views, and show that many critically important aspects of this problem are not adequately understood. These studies also supply a significant amount of raw data, furnish a platform for further research and theoretical work in labor economics, and direct attention to promising avenues for future programs.
Proposing an aggregative conception of vulnerability, this book provides a new framework for understanding individual experience of, and resilience to, vulnerability and promotes the need to find remedies for exposure to involuntary dependence, the unsecured future and the painful past.

A review devoted to the historical statistical and comparative study of politics, economics and public law.
First published in 1987. This volume explores the inter-war unemployment problem and the development of economic and social policy in relation to that problem. Contemporary policies and levels of unemployment can only be compared with the inter-war period and in recent years economists and other commentators have increasingly turned their attention to the 1930s. This book is written by a group of expert historians and policy analysts who have been in the forefront of recent research. In particular, new insights into economic policy which have come from the release of cabinet and departmental papers at The Public Record Office are revealed. Recent economic theory is also taken into account and the findings question established views on many grounds. New economic lessons from the 1930s are suggested and some astonishing similarities to the 1980s and demonstrated. This work will be essential reading for students of modern British history and economic and social history as well as economic policy and government and politics.
In the coming period it will be essential for Ukraine, which currently has to face a combination of massive economic decline, hyperinflation and growing open as well as hidden unemployment, to give a very high priority to the substantial reform of labour market and social policy. This book attempts to assess the trends in social and labour market policy in Ukraine and to help to identify the priorities to follow in the restructuring of the Ukrainian economy and the reform of social policy.
