not enough jobs,"he said."For_the_young,there_is_now_a_risk_that_will_turn_into_a_life_
sentenee."
     Britain is one of several developed nations facing high levels of joblessness.Total
unemployment is running at 7.8%,but one in five 16 to 24year olds is out of work and the

unemployment is running at about 30% and at 43% in Spain.The US announced a 27,000
increase in a weekly unemployment report on Thursday,and unemployment is running at 8.8%.

growth,is very important.We have to care about more inclusive growth.We need more than
growth；we need active policies."Mr.StraussKahn said there was "more focus on
unemployment and unfairness" in the IMF.

diet of the rising middle classes in new markets.The problem is being "made worse" by
