Opis

This book is an examination of the socio-economic problems of long-term unemployment (LTU) and repeat Job Seeker s Allowance (JSA) spells. It asks what are the individual, class, economic, educational, institutional, structural, social, and other factors contributing to LTU and repeat JSA spells? It includes discussion of the current debate regarding these factors and analyses to what extent they are both symptoms of the same problems.
