Takes a comprehensive look at two decades of employment experience in the developing world. Despite rapid labor force growth, conventionally measured unemployment has been contained through low productivity jobs in agriculture and the urban informal sector. Data suggest that numerous countries in Africa and Latin America have suffered real earnings losses in the 1980s, while East Asian economies enjoyed rapid growth in real incomes and declining unemployment. Suitabily adapted to local circumstances, the East Asian model of market-oriented, labor-intensive development commends itself to other developing countries as they seek to expand more productive employment over the next generation. Includes an extensive bibliography.
