Book The Riddle of Unemployment and Its Solution  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Riddle of Unemployment and Its Solution Classic Reprint written by Charles Edward Pell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Riddle of Unemployment and Its Solution Many and various have been the explanations put forward of the great waves of unemployment which sweep through our modern industrial society at fairly regular intervals. Among them are sunspots, high wages, natural laws, too much saving, and the exhaustion caused by war. It would be rash to say that the sunspots explanation, though it requires little refutation, is the most untenable. All these explanations ignore the plainest facts of the situation. For instance, the highest wages are invariably paid when trade is at its best, and it is the countries of high wages which are the most prosperous. Moreover, the nominally high wages paid since the war are high only when expressed in paper. Real wages are very little higher than before the war, and the recent fall has been a fall in paper wages also. Expressed in gold it is probable that wages have changed little. As for the exhaustion caused by the war, this explanation is absurd in every way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Persistent Public Problems: Unemployment, Social and Industrial Righteousness This book contains a composite message from earnest, eminent men. They are not dreamers, but practical, busy men of affairs. Men who have made good and whose dominating purpose is to do good. Here are discussed some of those persistent, puzzling, public problems which are more and more claiming the attention of thinking people. Grateful acknowledgment is here made of the gener ous and cordial cooperation of all whose names appear on these pages as assisting in this work. Every student of social problems and all who labor for social and industrial righteousness are confronted with the gigantic and complicated problem of unemploy ment, which has been said to lie in a very special sense at the foundation of our progress in civilization. So closely interrelated as to be really a part of the problem of unemployment are some of our most vexing and alarming problems. For illustration we may men tion the wage question, the problem of the high cost of living, &0. Most programs for the remedy of unemployment, usu ally superficial and temporary in character, omit any con sideration of these interrelated problems.

Book The Unemployed

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unemployed: A National Question Little practical progress has been made in recent years in our country in solving the problem of the Unemployed. When the sufferings of the poor become acute committees are formed, money is subscribed and distributed, and relief work is provided. But as soon as the crisis is past the distress and danger are forgotten, and nothing is done to- probe the sources of the disease and to provide a permanent and effective remedy. Yet the problem is one upon the solution of which the permanence of our existing social order depends. If the number of the unemployed and unemployable should increase beyond a certain limit, if hunger, cold and nakedness should overwhelm our temporary expedients for their relief, society might be in imminent danger, and might deplore too late its blindness and self-complacency. The distinction between the unemployed and the unemployable, which is very real from an economic point of view, is unstable and transient in the individual.

Book A Practical Program for the Prevention of Unemployment in America  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Program for the Prevention of Unemployment in America The time is past when the problem of unemployment could be disposed of either by ignoring it, as was the practice until recent years in America, or by attributing it to mere laziness and inefficiency. We are beginning to recognize that the causes of unemployment are not so much individual and due to the shiftlessness of "won't-works" as social and inherent in our present method of industrial organization. It is important that those who are aiming at the prevention of unemployment in America should never forget that it is a problem continually with us, in good seasons as well as in bad seasons. Occasional crises, with their sympathetic demands for temporary relief, should not blind us to the need for a constructive program. In the meantime the community, as a result of its past neglect to adopt some energetic constructive policy on unemployment, is being constantly confronted with an army of idle workers whose distress, which becomes conspicuous with the approach of bitter weather, demands, and, according to the analysis here presented, deserves adequate relief. Much unemployment is due to irregularity of industrial operations over which the workers have no control. Periodic abnormal excess of labor supply over labor demand is caused by the fluctuations of industry, which in its present disorganized form makes necessary constant reserves waiting to answer calls when they come. Hundreds of thousands more of workers are needed in good years than in bad years, and in each industry many more are needed in the busy season than in the slack season. Furthermore, in almost every business, special calls arise for more workers to be taken on for a few weeks, a few days or even a few hours. The reserves necessary to meet these cyclical, seasonal or casual demands should be reduced to a minimum. Industry must be regularised. Much unemployment, also, is caused by the lack of efficient means of transferring workers smoothly and rapidly from job to job. Public employment exchanges must be established.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Articles on Unemployment The second edition of Unemployment includes, in addition to the material contained in volume 1, about fifty pages of new re prints covering the years 1915 to date. Selections have been made on the broadest and most representative lines of thought so far as material permitted. In addition the bibliography has been revised, and over two hundred references, selected from recent material and have been included, many of them with an notations. The question oi a national public employment bureau is still much to the front in current considerations of the subject of Un employment. In the Federal Employment Service, established on a large scale during the late war and since reduced but still exist ing, we already have its limited realization. The debater will wish to consider whether the greatly curtailed appropriations of Congress since the close of the war are a desirable policy, or whether the service should be given full opportunity of growth and the realization of its objects. The brief has been altered somewhat to meet this new view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book A Bibliography of Unemployment and the Unemployed  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Bibliography of Unemployment and the Unemployed Classic Reprint written by F. Isabel Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bibliography of Unemployment and the Unemployed The list here presented to the student, of nearly eight hundred books, reports, pamphlets and articles relating to the problem of Unemployment, is, of course, very far, alike in form and in content, from being a proper bibliography of the subject. It is, in fact, no more than a summary guide to the principal publications of the United Kingdom, and to some of those of France, Germany, Italy and the United States, for the most part within the last quarter of a century. The items referred to are not all to be found in any one library, not even in the magnificent collection of the British Museum, the courteous assistance of which institution is gratefully acknowledged. The greater number are in the British Library of Political Science, in connection with the London School of Economics and Political Science, where they are accessible not only to students of that institution, but also to any serious inquirer. The present list, prepared in the first instance for some members of the Royal Commission on the Poor Laws and on the Relief of Distress from Unemployment(1905-9), and revised for the use of the Research Department of the National Committee to Promote the Break Up of the Poor Law, is now placed at the disposal of a wider circle. Perhaps the most serious deficiency in the list is its lack of historical perspective. We are always apt to suppose that Unemployment is peculiarly a problem of to-day, and such a mistaken impression might easily be fostered by the incomplete character of the present list. To remove that impression it would be useful if some student would supplement Miss Taylor's work by compiling a corresponding list, which would be a lengthy one, of publications on Unemployment during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries - to go no farther back into mediaeval darkness - and during the first three-quarters of the nineteenth century.

Book Unemployment Insurance in Theory and Practice  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Unemployment Insurance in Theory and Practice Classic Reprint written by National Industrial Conference Board and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unemployment Insurance in Theory and Practice The widespread unemployment produced by the industrial depression of 1921, the extent of unemployment in the United States during normal years, the increasing experimentation abroad with forms of social insurance against unemployment, and the bills providing for public unemployment insurance which have been introduced into the legislatures of several states, all have combined to make the question of unemployment insurance of growing importance in this country. That A unemployment is a national problem of the first order and that a broad, constructive program for dealing with it is a national need, requires no emphasis today. The conflicting social and economic points of view as to what this program should be, the varied interpretations of European experience with unemployment insurance and the prevailing vagueness of information on the situation in the United States as regards the application of public insurance to the unemployment problem, make Man impartial analysis of the question highly desirable. The purpose of the present report is to discuss the problem of the relation of public unemployment insurance to conditions in the United States, through an analysis of the theory of such insurance, an examination of European experience with its, various forms and a survey of the need and basis for public a unemployment insurance in the United States. Legislative. projects for such insurance in this country are studied from the point of view of economic and social theory and in the light of American economic and social conditions so as to provide a basis for unbiased judgment regarding the applicability of any form of social insurance to the unemployment problem in the United States. Realizing the burden which unemployment puts upon modern industrial society, the Board in this report wishes to emphasize the necessity for a thorough study of the character of the problem and the possibilities of meeting it in ways adapted to economic and industrial conditions in the United State, without prejudice to the principle of public insurance in so fr as its need and practicability may be demonstrated.
