Unemployment

This book is largely based on the contribution to the 3rd International Conference of the Scientific Committee Unemployment & Health of International Commission on Occupational Health (ICOH) in Bremen, 2006. Its papers address the links between unemployment, precariousness in the labour market and health risks from various scientific frames of reference as well as those of policy makers. The 42 articles by authors from 13 countries and several international organizations include major classics in the field as well as new research that has until now been internationally largely unknown.
