  Why is Europe's employment rate almost 10 percent lower than that of the United States? Drawing on the findings of a project that examined data from France, Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, and the United States, this work argues that Europe's 25 million missing jobs can be attributed almost entirely to its relative lack of service jobs.
