Unemployment is the most serious economic and social problem
currently confronting the European Union. Although the extent
varies from region to region, it is generally most extreme in large
cities. Over recent years it has continued to increase, despite a
plethora of active labour market policies to combat it. The author
looks at unemployment in Europe, asks why it is so high and looks
at the policies designed to curb it. The volume examines a number
of issues including unemployment in Europe contrasted with other
developing economies; the special factors at a local level that can
affect the level of urban unemployment; European Union policy on
unemployment and the allocation of funds; case studies of five
major European cities currently experiencing high levels of
unemployment; and an analysis of proposals for the future. This
work should be a valuable guide for all those interested in the
wider aspects of urban unemployment in Europe.
