Employment and Economic Performance : Jobs, Inflation, and Growth

This book provides an up-to-date and well-informed overview of the debate on employment. The contributors ask: is full employment possible? Would it lead to inflation, excess of trade union power, and balance of payment deficits? Is full employment affordable? They face up to these questions and consider what would be involved in a move to much lower levels of unemployment. This is an important and original contribution to current policy debate.
