Reviews

'Doris SchrAeder's book will be welcomed by all who are interested, whether theoretically, administratively or managerially, in the history, politics and economics of the western welfare state. Expertly drawing upon a wide range of disciplines, the author offers substantial and much needed critique of the fashionable 'pathological' theory of unemployment.' Chris Cherry, Reader in Moral Philosophy, University of Kent, UK
