Employment in the 1990s

This work charts the developments in the labour market since the war and attempts to assess the contribution of national policy and ideology.

The book finds unemployment disturbingly entrenched and no shared vision of what to do about it.

Britain's best prospect, the book suggests, lies with a revived opportunity to work in the future.

Without the will to realize this, Britain's present economic dislocation promises social and political upheavals ahead.;Various forecasts of job prospects are considered and an analysis of employment and consumption trends is offered.

The author reviews deployment of national resources and finds that technological development is real and growing.
