Abstract

D'un côté les moins diplômés, dont l'emploi se dégrade, de l'autre les très qualifiés, enfants chéris d'une économie de plus en plus gourmande en compétences. D'un côté des emplois mal payés, sans intérêt ni perspective d'évolution. De l'autre des postes aux salaires élevés, des connaissances valorisées, des possibilités de carrière... Phénomène marquant des deux dernières décennies, la polarisation du marché du travail touche la plupart des pays. Elle se traduit par une explosion des écarts de rémunération et par un risque accru de chômage et de précarisation. Les causes sont multiples - changements technologiques, mondialisation, désindustrialisation, etc. - et leurs effets se renforcent mutuellement. Ce phénomène est-il inéluctable ? Avec la disparition des emplois intermédiaires assiste-t-on à la mort programmée de la classe moyenne ou parviendrons-nous à adapter nos économies à cette nouvelle donne ? -- 4ème de couverture.

Abstract

Don't trust low unemployment numbers as proof that the labor market is doing fine - it isn't. Not Working is about those who can't find full-time work at a decent wage - the underemployed - and how their plight is contributing to widespread despair, a worsening drug epidemic, and the unchecked rise of right-wing populism. In this revelatory and outspoken book, David Blanchflower draws on his acclaimed work in the economics of labor and well-being to explain why today's postrecession economy is vastly different from what came before. He calls out our leaders and policymakers for failing to see the Great Recession coming, and for their continued failure to address one of the most unacknowledged social catastrophes of our time. Blanchflower shows how many workers are underemployed or have simply given up trying to find a well-paying job, how wage growth has not returned to prerecession levels despite rosy employment indicators, and how general prosperity has not returned since the crash of 2008. Standard economic measures are often blind to these forgotten workers, which is why Blanchflower practices the "economics of walking about "--Seeing for himself how ordinary people are faring under the recovery, and taking seriously what they say and do. Not Working is his candid report on how the young and the less skilled are among the worst casualties of underemployment, how immigrants are taking the blame, and how the epidemic of unhappiness and self-destruction will continue to spread unless we deal with it.
