	Tutor2u - Unemployment - Causes of Unemployment
		Traditionally, trade unions and wages councils are seen as the institutions causing this type of unemployment although the importance of trade unions in the UK labour market has diminished significantly over recent years and this has not stopped unemployment reaching nearly three million twice in the last twenty years.
		Frictional unemployment is transitional unemployment due to people moving between jobs: For example, newly redundant workers or workers entering the labour market (such as university graduates) may take time to find appropriate jobs at wage rates they are prepared to accept.
		Structural unemployment occurs when people are made unemployed because of capital-labour substitution (which reduces the demand for labour) or when there is a long run decline in demand in their particular industry.

	SparkNotes: Measuring the Economy 2: Unemployment
		While unemployment is a general term that describes people who wish to work but cannot find jobs, there are actually a number of specific types of unemployment.
		This type of unemployment is called cyclical unemployment because it is attributable to changes in output due to the cycles of the economy.
		The unemployment rate is the ratio of the unemployed to the total labor force or (5 / 25) = 20%.

		Another type of unemployment that arises naturally in a dynamic economy is structural unemployment.
		This type of unemployment is due to changes in economic institutions, geographic displacement, technological change, and similar factors.

	Introduction to Macroeconomics Chapter 19
		Frictional and structural unemployment are two types of unemployment that always exist in an economy and thus prevent the unemployment rate from ever reaching zero.
		Because frictional and structural unemployment cannot be directly measured, the natural rate of unemployment is a theoretical concept that is often defined as the rate at which increases in aggregate demand for output leads mostly to higher prices and wages rather than output and employment.
		For example, if the unemployment rate increases from 4 % in year 1 to 5 % in year 2, there was a 1 % increase in the unemployment rate.

		Frictional, structural, and seasonal unemployment are three types of unemployment that always exist in an economy and thus prevent the unemployment rate from ever reaching zero.
		Unemployment benefits certainly reduce the hardship to the individual from being laid off, but they also raise the level of the natural rate of unemployment.

	Unemployment types - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This type of unemployment coincides with an equal number of vacancies and cannot be solved using aggregate demand stimulation.
		Structural unemployment may also be encouraged to rise by persistent cyclical unemployment: if an economy suffers from long-lasting low aggregate demand, it means that many of the unemployed become disheartened, while finding their skills (including job-searching skills) become "rusty" and obsolete.
		To Marxists, this kind of unemployment cannot be abolished without overthrowing capitalism as an economic system and replacing it with democratic socialism — or else by running capitalism using a fascist state, under which profitability is protected by the systematic use of direct force.

	Lecture 11. Oct. 2 - Ch. 7, part 2
		Frictional unemployment is an outcome of normal labor turnover -- that is, the movement of people into and out of the labor force and the creation and destruction of jobs in a dynamic economy are both sources of frictional unemployment.
		However, the duration of unemployment also tends to rise near the trough of a business cycle and decline during expansions (i.e., more of it is longer-term during the worst of a recession).
		In addition to the three types of unemployment described by Parkin, economists also distinguish seasonal unemployment -- the unemployment that results from seasonal changes in the demand for labor (as occurs in agriculture or tourism) or in the supply of labor (as with students in the summertime).

	Types of Unemployment (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.isi.jhu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Frictional unemployment results from the day-to-day changes in a dynamic, changing economic system in which old industries die and new ones are born, in which people get tired of old jobs and old bosses, in which bosses find work of subordinates unsatisfactory, and in which new people enter and others reenter the labor force.
		Structural unemployment exists when a person is not qualified for any job because the amount he can contribute to any job (his marginal revenue product) is less than the minimum wage payable for that job.
		The existence of this type of unemployment is considered a problem, and government programs have attempted to deal with it.

	Unemployment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Unemployment rate (as a percentage of the labor force) in the United States.
		As in the Marxian theory of unemployment, special interests may also benefit: employers often like having their employees in fear of losing their jobs, and thus working hard, keeping their wage demands low, etc. As noted, unemployment may increase employers' monopsony power.
		Note: from March 1, 2005 unemployment statistics were be derived from three sources, the Current Population Survey, a statewide survey of businesses known as the Current Employment Statistics Survey, and state unemployment insurance claims.

		The frictional type of unemployment is a sign of economic health.
		A second, more philosophical issue, is that, as opposed to frictional unemployment, which is a welcome sign, structural unemployment is not and must be fiercely fought by the state.
		But this rate of unemployment can be achieved only with the right policy decisions on the state level – and the right management cadre to take advantage of these decisions and of the thrilling new vistas of the global market scene.
