Resilience and unemployment

Mehr zum Buch

This volume contains contributions to the conference Salzburger Anstöße 2010 that was devoted to the multidisciplinary exploration of resilience and unemployment. Resilience is a universal phenomenon, albeit it is differentially distributed within the human species in terms of its modes of expression and effects. One might refer to it as a fundamental element in the adaptive survival make-up of persons and social groups. In this volume we find a wide range of illustrations of resilient adaptation in the context of unemployment, one of the fundamental problems of our time.
