| By adapting the alternative unemployment indicators series (U1-U6), which has long been in use in the United States and in many European countries, the authors endeavour to create their own indicators series using the Hungarian national statistical database as a basis to evaluate the results. This is performed both on the national and regional levels, meaning the socially and economically disadvantaged Northern Great Plain Region which is compared with the developed Western Transdanubian Region. The authors also attempt to establish a relationship between problems caused by unemployment in the Eastern part of the country and agriculture. |
