Dangers of Enforced Leisure
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page position paper agreeing with the concepts presented in Steven Muller’s “Time to Kill” (The National Interest, Summer 1997), in which the author asserts that Europe’s perpetual high unemployment and business-constraining government regulations could in time destroy the fabric of the European culture. Both existing and emerging conditions “suggest that the outcome of large-scale enforced leisure will be a new form of social conflict in Europe” (Muller, 1997; p. 26). Muller’s (1997) thesis is startling and superficially can be rejected. Closer examination, however, reveals that his logic is sound and the future he envisions for all of the world’s most developed economies is one that is quite plausible and needs to be avoided. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
