title: The macroeconomics of demographic unemployment.
abstract: "What are the macroeconomic consequences of an increase in labour supply? In the short run, unemployment occurs, due to both lack of aggregate demand and capital shortage.  Demand-side policy and money wage restraint prove to be ineffective in this situation, owing to capital shortage.  On the other hand, a reduction in working hours without wage compensation as well as a policy mix of both demand-side policy and investment policy turn out to be effective.  The reduction in working hours lowers individual income and raises individual leisure, as compared to the policy mix." (SUMMARY IN GER)
