Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the economy has begun growing again, it may be a while before the unemployment rate shows steady improvement. The unemployment rate is considered a lagging indicator, meaning that its ups and downs happen some time after the ups and downs of other indicators of economic activity. For example, more than a year elapsed before the unemployment rate trended downward following the end of the 1990-1991 and 2001 recessions. This led the two to be labeled jobless recoveries. By contrast, after four earlier recessions the unemployment rate began a sustained decline within four to five months. This report examines the relationship between economic growth and the unemployment rate to anticipate possible future developments.

Download or read book Economic Recovery Sustaining U S Economic Growth in a Post Crisis Economy written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recession that began in late 2007 was long and deep. It is likely to prove to be the worst economic contraction since the 1930s (but still much less severe than the Great Depression). The slowdown of economic activity was moderate through the first half of 2008, but at that point the weakening economy was overtaken by a major financial crisis that would exacerbate the economic weakness and accelerate the decline. Recent evidence suggests that the process of economic recovery has begun. Real gross domestic product (GDP) has been on a positive track since mid-2009. The stock market has recovered from its lows, and employment has increased moderately. On the other hand, significant economic weakness remains evident, particularly in the labor and housing markets. In the typical post-war business cycle, lower than normal growth during the recession is quickly followed by a recovery period with above normal growth. This above normal growth serves to speed up the reentry of the unemployed to the workforce. Once the economy reaches potential output (and full employment), growth returns to its normal growth path where the pace of aggregate spending advances in step with the pace of aggregate supply.

Book excerpt: Unemployment and under-employment represented $25.8 billion in annual wages not earned in Los Angeles County, $28.2 billion in lost private sector economic activity and $4 billion in tax revenue not generated. In 2012, over a fifth of Los Angeles County's labor force was unemployed or under-employed. Over a third of the county's population lived in a household where one or more breadwinners are under-employed. Unemployment and under-employment rates in LA peaked at the end of 2010, but remained 36 percent and 43 percent higher, respectively, than the U.S. rates in 2012.Each recession tests the industrial strengths of the economy, altering the number and type of jobs available in the labor market, and quite possibly the wages offered for those jobs. Four industries with a strong presence in Los Angeles that pay sustaining wages and have the capacity to export goods and services to a global market, have had significant job losses since the recession started. These industry sectors merit careful attention: Durable Manufacturing, Nondurable Manufacturing, Information excluding Motion Pictures, and Professional, Technical and Scientific Services.The most important tools of local government for shaping the economy are indirect but very powerful over the long term, if used well. This includes decisions over the use of land, the most valuable asset in the local economy, transportation infrastructure, the most powerful tool for shaping land use, and education and training, which determine the productivity and earnings of the labor force. The minimum requirement for effective action to strengthen the economy is an understanding of the strengths, opportunities and risks in the local economy. Not all industries are equal - some contribute much more than others do to the well-being of workers and the economy. Furthermore, industry conditions change continuously, so to act in their own economic self-interest, communities must understand the industry structure of the local economy, determine which industries strengthen the public balance sheet, and be alert to changing industry conditions.

Download or read book Just Around The Corner written by Stanley Aronowitz and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2005-03-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans have always believed that economic growth leads to job growth. In this groundbreaking analysis, Stanley Aronowitz argues that this is no longer true. Just Around the Corner examines the state of the American economy as planned by Democrats and Republicans over the last thirty years. Aronowitz finds that economic growth has become "delinked" from job creation, and that unemployment and underemployment are a permanent condition of our economy. He traces the historical roots of this state of affairs and sees under the surface of booms and busts a continuum of economic austerity that creates financial windfalls for the rich at the expense of most Americans. Aronowitz also explores the cultural and political processes by which we have come to describe and accept economics in the United States. He concludes by presenting a concrete plan of action that would guarantee employment and living wages for all Americans. With both measured analysis and persuasive reasoning, Just Around the Corner provides an indispensable guide to our current economic predicament and a bold challenge to economists and policymakers.
