- Summary:
- In this major book, Robin Marris finds that a slowdown in growth is the root cause, leading to a collapse in the labour market for unskilled men in particular. While the technological revolution and the globalization of trade are both desirable in themselves, they have interacted with the growth slowdown to make the problem more serious.
