ECONOMIC CRISIS, EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL AFFAIRS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION-PROPOSALS AND ACTIONS TO COMBAT UNEMPLOYMENT

For many years, unemployment has been one of the thorniest problems plaguing the European Union. Since the beginning of the global economic and financial crisis, the Union has been continuously experiencing high employment rates, coupled with low investment levels. The unemployment issue with its various significant implications and the numerous areas directly linked to it, such as economic growth, globalization, regional disparities, taxation, education, crime, labor market reforms, industrial restructuring, immigration, social welfare policies and the role of domestic political institutions, concern every thinking citizen of the Union and especially young people. The book's target is twofold. On the one hand we attempt to present in a simplified manner the entire range of the Union's activities in the context of employment and social affairs and, on the other hand, to demonstrate that solutions towards a more optimistic tomorrow indeed exist as long as, of course, specific conditions apply. This book was published in Greek by Historical Quest in 2017. It was translated into English by the author himself in 2019.
