Description

Explore the complex social dynamics of long-term unemployment and urban poverty with this academic study from Routledge. This book provides a systematic analysis of the different cultures found among unemployed populations in the United States and other parts of the world. By using a combination of case studies and survey data, the authors develop a functional framework to help readers understand how welfare state policies impact those facing chronic unemployment. This work goes beyond surface-level statistics to examine the personal and political worlds that drive social mechanisms within the welfare state. By comparing these findings with significant ethnographic studies conducted in the United States, the text offers unique insights into the specific similarities and differences between various global contexts. It is a valuable resource for students and professionals interested in anthropology, sociology, and the social sciences.
