Beschreibung:
High level comparative analysis of economics of low wages and underemployment.
When too little a reward is paid for low-wage work and as a result too little occurs, what is the most effective solution? Some of the world's leading economists look at the theory and evidence underpinning alternative approaches to the persistent problem of low wages and underemployment in western economies.
