From the Paper:

"Unemployment in Qatar is a serious issue - as it elsewhere in the world. It is serious not only because high unemployment rates mean high levels of social unrest and declining living standards but because, in a day and age of global terrorism, the possibility that disaffected young men (and a few women) might to choose to express their outrage and feelings of impotence by lashing out in violence against others is a real possibility that can no longer be taken lightly. The following paper will review the unemployment situation in Qatar and examine that nation's benefits package, while arguing briefly that the Qatari government's apparent restraint in terms of granting unemployment benefits is the right way to go. Proceeding from there, the paper will understandably also examine what the Qatar government is doing to combat unemployment and what it is doing to provide safety nets for the unemployed and/or under-employed."
