Desemprego, sindicatos e inovação na política social

Resumo

The author analyses causes the of continued massive unemployment in Western Europe. He criticizes the neoclassic approach. On the other hand, points at the limitations of union proposals (to keep salaries up, to shorten the working week). He suggests that the possible solution for the "excess of labor", i.e., a nondiscriminatory or coercive solution, would be the development of a "post-industrial domestic sector" where socially acknowledged and meaningful activities were held, with state paid and juridically guaranteed wages.
