Unemployment - Structural

Author

Listed:
  • Lindbeck, A.

Abstract

Structural unemployment differs from cyclical unemployment by not disappearing in cyclical booms. In economic theory, structural unemployment is usually analyzed in terms of the concept of equilibrium unemployment (the "natura unemployment rate" in Friedman's terminology). The paper pinpoints various factors that influence the level of structural unemployment, which differs in time and place.
