Does the EU fail in the fight against unemployment?

The free movement of workers is one of the greatest achievements of European integration, explains Prof. Ulrich Becker in "Dossier Politik" of the broadcast station Bayern2. However, this should not call into question the social and economic order in the Member States. In order to guarantee better protection for all EU citizens in the event of unemployment, Becker suggests the introduction of a European unemployment insurance system.
