Book: Getting Back to Full Employment: A Better Bargain for Working People

Posted by on January 20, 2014

Putting Full Employment on the Equity Agenda

If we want to reduce inequality and see prosperity broadly shared, we need full employment, argue economists Dean Baker and Jared Bernstein. Their new book, Getting Back to Full Employment: A Better Bargain for Working People (available for free download), explains how to put America back to work — and why people of color and low-wage workers stand to gain most. America’s Tomorrow spoke with Baker about the policies that can get us to full employment and why equity advocates should demand them.
