Disguised Unemployment in Underdeveloped Areas
Author: Yong Sam Cho
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520311302
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to examine the accepted concepts and theories on surplus labor in underdeveloped agricultural economics, particularly in the literature on "disguised unemployment." By doing so, the author clears tha way toward finding a more valid theoretical concept of this vital subject, which is the core of potential economic and social development in the underdeveloped countries. The author, after establishing a more realistic and workable definition of surplus labor on the basis of a closer investigation of the extended family-clan-village system, so typical of the tradition-guided underdeveloped societies, proceeds to work out a method for measuring true surplus labor, with rural South Korea as a case example. Of particular interest is the author's distinction between two types of surplus labor: technical (open) idle labor and the tradition-directed (closed) idle labor. Thus having obtained quantitative data on the extent of underemployment in South Korea, the author continues with a discussion of policy implications in the employment structure of underdeveloped countries, and constructs a proposed program for the utilization of surplus labor, without the application of totalitarian methods, without waiting for the availability of additional capital from the outside, and without making a change in traditional instituions and a priori condition for the utilization of idle labor. This program calls for capital improvements within the agricultural area, financed by the agricultural sector itself, after it is shown through statistical data that capital improvements in agriculture yield quicker and greater results than in other sectors of the economy. The author also attempts to show how such a program would not only put to work a major part of unutilized labor on agricultural development projects, but would also pave the way toward a gradual dissolution of those social traditions and institutions that have been economically hampering and that have been, thereby, an important cause of perpetuating economic and social stagnation. The author also claims for his program the aded virtue of minimizing the social unrest that results from economic distress, thus safeguarding political stability within the framework of needed reform. The government of the Republic of Korea cooperated closely with the author in carrying out the research underlying this study. Basic statistical data were obtained through the cooperation of the research department of the Bank of Korea. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1963.

Fiscal Policy in Underdeveloped Countries
Author: Raja J. Chelliah
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136878297
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Originally published in 1960, with a second edition in 1969, this book is of special interest for having been the first systematic attempt to discuss problems of fiscal policy from the point of view of promoting economic growth in underdeveloped countries. It deals mainly with problems of tax policy, and outlines the economic principles by which the structure of taxation in developing economies can be constructed and evaluated. The work made a distinct contribution in the field of Development studies by reorienting the theory of fiscal policy originally developed in the economically advanced countries to the problems, requirements and institutional structure of an underdeveloped, over-populated country with a mixed enterprise system.
