Bezrobocie we współczesnym świecie. Czy istnieją możliwości pełnego zatrudnienia?
Unemployment in modern world. Is full employment achieveable?

Summary/Abstract: Economically developed countries have recently been undergoing a deep transformation in the fields of labour and income. It does not seem, however, to attract much interest on the part of science and politics. The prevalent view is that there is a possibility of increasing employment and even of a rapid return to full employment. And yet, the demand for labour is declining today and economies develop in the absence of employment growth. The existence of a long-term labour and income development phase model has to be analysed from a historical perspective. The roles of self-supply and exchange of agricultural food products are changing. Financial income is increasingly obtained from labour services as well as from capital gains; hence, the possibilities of a new mixed income can be defined. In the present economic situation, various scenarios are being considered for the future of labour: ones which establish a new compromise between capital and labour. Employment growth will be determined by new trends in technology and economy, the development of the so-called 'third sector' of society, and new legal and institutional frameworks for the development of modern mixed incomes. Civic work has a complementary significance in this context; it is voluntary, self-organised work performed in relevant areas. It is a vision of a new political society.
