Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the multifaceted issue of unemployment. The author defines unemployment and explores the various ways in which it can be measured. Different methods yield different results, and determining accurate unemployment rates is challenging. However, these rates are essential for researching trends and monitoring changes. The author then identifies the negative consequences of unemployment. Financial loss and job insecurity can lead to a decline in living standards. Unemployment can also erode workers' skills and morale, making it harder for them to find new jobs. Additionally, it can create a sense of uncertainty and insecurity, which can have a ripple effect throughout society. The author emphasizes that the average volume of unemployment over time is more relevant than the number of unemployed at any given moment. Tackling this requires understanding the causes of unemployment, which the book explores in subsequent chapters. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
