Items related to Unemployment in Europe
This book considers the policies needed to combat unemployment in Europe. One of the key developments-politically, socially, and economically-of the late 1980s and early 1990s was the formulation of proposals and policies for the further integration of the European Community, first with the Single European Act and the 1992 process, and now with the Maastricht Treaty's proposals for moving to a single currency by the end of the century. Alongside this, Britain has experienced its longest recession since the 1930s, and Europe generally seems set for economic stagnation and mass unemployment through the 1990s. These economic developments have made the Maastricht Treaty inadequate at best, and as Jacques Delors and others have publicly acknowledged, the need for the rest of the 1990s will be for policies to tackle unemployment. These cannot be limited to 'labor market' policies-positive fiscal and industrial policies are also required. It is these policies for growth and tackling unemployment which the book analyses.

Review:
"High-quality essays...This volume promises to remain topical for some time... Highly recommended collection, which argues persuasively for the intelligent application of stimulative fiscal, monetary, exchange rate, and regional policies toward a fully employed Europe."
--THOMAS R. MICHL, University of Colgate
"This book should prove to be of value to those students and teachers who are seeking alternative views on the problem of unemployment and also on the effects of European integration on regional development... This book provides a welcome alternative to orthodox positions of unemployment.
--Frank McDonald, Manchester Metropolitan University, in ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS EDUCATION
"...an extremely useful collection of papers which should feature in many intermediate-level Economics courses and in final-year options for European Studies/Politics students."
