While policy makers previously approached unemployment as a social and economic problem to be addressed through macroeconomic policies, recent labour market policy reforms have placed much more emphasis on the supposedly deficient employability of the unemployed themselves, a troubling shift that deserves close, critical attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracing a behind-the-scenes history of public employment services in Canada, \u003ci\u003eBureaucratic Manoeuvres\u003c\/i\u003e shows just how difficult it has been for administrators and frontline staff to govern unemployment as a problem of individual employability. Drawing on untapped government records, it sheds much-needed light on internal bureaucratic struggles over the direction of labour market policy in Canada and makes a key contribution to Canadian political science, economics, public administration, and sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47919513567390,"sku":"ING-9781487504472","price":93.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781487504472.jpg?v=1782813344","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781487504472","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
