The article examines how the structure of employment changed during the 'great recession' in the EU that started in 2007. It compares this recession to previous ones in Europe and predicts what would have happened if growth had continued as usual. The researchers focus on factors like employment growth, labor input, wage distribution, and overall changes in employment.
