As economists of that era defined the term, unemployment referred to a structural issue that resulted in \"genuine workmen\" experiencing temporary joblessness, despite being blameless in the matter. Extensive research has been conducted to explore the various perspectives held by social thinkers and politicians regarding the causes of unemployment, the increasingly precise categorization of individuals who were jobless, and the growing movement to advocate for labor both within and outside Parliament. This movement was primarily driven by the urgent need to address the pressing problem of unemployment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the scholarly content, this volume is accompanied by extensive editorial commentary, making it an invaluable resource for students of British history. The insights provided by experts in the field shed light on the historical context, societal implications, and political developments that shaped the understanding and response to unemployment during this period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy examining the various arguments and initiatives presented in this volume, students will gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges associated with unemployment in nineteenth-century Britain. It serves as a valuable tool for scholars, researchers, and anyone interested in exploring the historical roots of contemporary economic and social issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 850g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367335250\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105183527162,"sku":"9780367335250","price":149.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_be1fca03-4fc7-4a16-bbe6-0e6043c9ac05.jpg?v=1655647242","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/work-and-unemployment-18341911-9780367335250","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
