Abstract: "Martin Zagler investigates the interaction between changes in the level of unemployment and changes in the economic rate of growth. He asks, both in theory and in evidence, whether a change in the growth rate of the economy will affect the level of unemployment which the economy experiences, and whether a decline in the level of unemployment will foster or restrict the growth performance of the economy. The book provides the reader with a simple graphical toolkit - the resource constraint and the incentive condition - which allows her to understand the relationship between economic growth and unemployment.
