- Victimization of the jobless
Background
The exploitation of the unemployed emerged as a recognized global issue during the Great Depression, when mass joblessness exposed widespread abuses such as forced labor, wage theft, and predatory recruitment. Subsequent economic crises, including the 1980s recession and the 2008 financial collapse, highlighted persistent patterns of discrimination and manipulation targeting the jobless. International organizations and labor rights groups have since documented these practices, underscoring their prevalence across both developed and developing economies.
Incidence
Unemployed women and men are being persuaded by relative large sums of money to act as subjects in multiple drug studies.
