本文考察了印度尼西亚从 20 世纪 70 年代到 1996 年的失业率结构和变化。分析的重点是城市青年的高失业率，其他发展中国家也遇到了类似问题。它还涉及一些概念和测量问题。结论是，青年失业率高在一定程度上是中产阶级家庭的排队现象，与求职过程和工资结构有关。但工作年龄人口中贫困家庭儿童的利用率也很高。随着时间的推移，论文发现失业率结构相当稳定，总体失业率有上升的趋势。失业率上升的原因包括教育程度低或高等教育学历的年轻人，以及女性。解释包括最低工资提高和制造业活动放缓，尽管定义的改变也发挥了一定作用。
This paper examines structure and change in unemployment in Indonesia from the 1970s through to 1996 The analysis focuses on high unemployment rates among urban youth, set in the context of similar problems experienced in other developing countries. It also deals with some of the conceptual and measurement issues. It is concluded that high youth unemployment is partly a queuing phenomenon among middle class families, related to processes of job search and wage structure. But rates of under-utilisation are also high among children of poorer households in the working age papulation Over time, the paper finds considerable stability in the structure of unemployment, with some tendency for overall rates to increase Some rises in unemplnyment were experienced by youth with either low educational status or tertiary qualifications, and by women Explanations include increased minimum wages and a slowdown in manufacturing activity, although changing definations have also played a part.
