The Nature of Unemployment in Britain Summary

The Nature of Unemployment in Britain: Studies of the DHSS Cohort by Stephen Nickell (Professor of Economics and Director of the Institute of Economics and Statistics, Professor of Economics and Director of the Institute of Economics and Statistics, University of Oxford)

This is an important contribution to the study of the characteristics and behaviour of the unemployed especially in their search for work. It is based on the analysis of unusually good data on a large cohort of men registering as unemployed in 1978, which enables the authors to overcome many of the problems of measuring the effects of economic, demographic and policy variables on unemployment. The results presented will interest labour economists and anyone involved in the policy debate on unemployment.
