Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book reports on the 1937 United States Census of Unemployment. Following the Great Depression, the government conducted a survey of the unemployed to better serve and understand the needs of its citizens. The survey included questions about income, occupation, age, dependents, and working hours. In addition to the unemployment survey, the book includes the findings of a subsequent enumerative census, designed to check the accuracy of the voluntary survey. Through these two surveys, the author was able to make inferences about the population of workers not captured in the original survey, like housewives supplementing their family income and those only seeking work due to circumstance rather than financial necessity. This book provides a snapshot of the experiences of the American worker in the late 1930s. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. …

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents findings from the 1937 voluntary registration of the unemployed and partly unemployed in the United States. The author utilized data from nearly four million registrations, and this book delineates in detail the characteristics and geographic distribution of said unemployment. The author notes several defining distinctions among the various unemployment categories and offers a comprehensive look at the demographic and socio-economic data of these groups. Included amongst the findings are estimations of the duration of unemployment, the income of the unemployed, and the age range of the unemployed. The author delves deeper into the impact of unemployment on family structures and how many were affected by the loss of even one income. Broken down by race, age, gender, industry, and type of occupation, this book provides a valuable historical resource and an in-depth look into the unemployment crisis of the Great Depression. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
