Abstract/Artist's Statement
Peeling back the layers of Georgia's economic history, we find a persistent but familiar challenge: joblessness and beneath it, we find a multitude of factors shaping the Georgian labor market. By understanding these factors, we can not only identify the cause of the problem but explore possible solutions to tackle this issue. This research paper aims to uncover the reasons why Georgia struggles with persistent unemployment, poverty, inequality, brain drain, and a declining population. In order to get to the root of this relentless economic predicament the paper closely examines labor market trends with its dimensions and attempts to present the Job Guarantee program as a valid solution for policymakers to consider.
