Excerpt from The Problem of the Unemployed, an Enquiry and an Economic Policy The Unemployed Question has greatly suffered from the modern tendency of economic investigation in England to devote an almost exclusive attention to the study of detailed facts, ignoring the larger facts or principles in which these smaller facts find their unity. It may be readily conceded that the treatment of no industrial subject has suffered more than this from vague and unfounded generalities, and that the close labour of historical research in collecting and grouping facts is a most urgent need. Such work to be effective requires a separate investigation and discussion of the several forms and aspects of Unemployment and of the forces which are engaged in causing it. So the Unemployed Question easily bifurcates into the treatment of skilled and unskilled, able-bodied and inefficient, temporarily unemployed and surplus labour, country and town labour, while each trade is found to have its special characters and causes of seasonal irregularity or wider fluctuations.
