Is there a significant risk that the poor employmentprospects will lead to social unrest and erode confidence inpolicymakers' ability to provide fair solutions to the crisis? Do governments have adequate maneuvering room to supportemployment recovery while reducing budget deficits? How can well-designed employment and wage policiessupport more balanced growth in countries with large tradesurpluses, paving the way for a sustainable global recovery? In what ways can the financial sector be reformed to serve theneeds of the real economy?
