Unlocking the unemployment puzzle with a clear, evidence-based view of how production, prices, and money shape jobs.
In The Riddle of Unemployment, Charles Edward Pell lays out a practical framework for understanding why economies slip into recession and how policy can restore work. Drawing on early 20th‑century debates, the book argues that price movements and credit policy, rather than vague natural laws, drive booms and slumps. It explains how credit control, via the bank-rate, can stabilize employment and support social progress without risky schemes.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the riddle of unemployment and proposes a solution. Unemployment is a problem as old as society itself, yet it persists through periods of prosperity and peace and reaches its peak during economic downturns. The author argues that unemployment is caused by a fall in prices, which in turn results from a contraction of credit. The book presents a thorough analysis of the relationship between money and prices, challenging the conventional understanding of the quantity theory of money. The author delves into the history and mechanics of currency systems, demonstrating how the gold standard is flawed and leads to disastrous contractions of credit and consequent trade depressions. Proposing an alternative, the author outlines an ideal currency system that would prevent these problems and provide the revenues for social reforms. By understanding the root cause of unemployment and implementing the solutions proposed in this book, we can break the back of this persistent and devastating problem.
