>But this is a particularly unfair >criticism to direct at the Canadian Centre for the Study of Living >Standards >who have in fact published a large number of studies of unemployment, No adverse criticism of the Canadian Centre was intended or made. The point of my message was to draw attention to the neglect of unemployment as a subject worthy of worldwide study. How can it be that we have a first-class journal more or less devoted to labour productivity, but none devoted to one of the outcomes of increasing labour productivity - namely high unemployment in most countries of the world? It is noted that the Canadian Centre have published studies of unemployment. But it would not be unfair to summarise these as dealing with unemployment as a problem associated with management of the economies of a few highly idustrialised countries. As the UN statistics quoted show, unemployment is mainly a problem for countries that cannot be regarded as industrialised.
