The Politics of Unemployment exposes the true causes of unemployment. Examines government policies and union practices, and demolishes common misconceptions. Discusses the factors promoting true employment, and how legislation (from minimum wage laws to unemployment compensation) is creating unemployment. Shows that only the economics of the market leads to maximum employment. Critiques college textbooks and their "approaches" to unemployment.
