Full employment is the theme of this second issue of ""World Employment"". The report includes a global review of recent employment trends and of the major sources of scepticism over the contemporary relevance of full employment. It presents empirical evidence to refute claims that the end of work and jobless growth are now facts of life, and argues that, suitably updated, the objective of full employment remains both highly desirable and attainable.; The book provides policy options for: industrialized countries, including recommendations on how to reverse the drift away from full employment.

A scholarly volume devoted to an understanding of contemporary nomadic and pastoral societies in the Middle East and North Africa. This volume recognizes the variable mobile quality of the ways of life of these societies which persist in accommodating the ‘nation-state’ of the 20th and 21st century but remain firmly transnational and highly adaptive. Composed of four sections around the theme of contestation it includes examinations of contested authority and power, space and social transformation, development and economic transformation, and cultures and engendered spaces.
