    [NT 51398] Summary: Most of the scholarship on the Job Guarantee up to now has been in the context of industrialized nations such as the United States and Australia. "Employment Guarantee Schemes" directs attention to challenges and opportunities of enacting direct job creation policies in developing countries and BRICS, including China, Ghana, Argentina, and India. This book also investigates how the Job Guarantee might interface with other policy goals, such as environmental sustainability. Eschewing narrow individualistic and economistic approaches, these interdisciplinary, historical, and comparative studies delve deeper into how both unemployment and true full employment can affect community.
