摘要：High rates of unemployment and rising levels of inequality of incomes and wealth have characterized many advanced, industrialized countries in the 1980s and 1990s. Some countries-such as the USA and Germany-have done rather better at creating jobs (though not always good jobs) while others-such as Australia, Canada and Japan-have done rather worse. But no country has a good record, at least as compared to the rates at which decent jobs were created during the 1950s and 1960s.
