The surprising increase in U.S. unemployment in the Great Recession and the persistence of long-term unemployment in the economic recovery pose important questions for employment policy. Why did unemployment grow more than forecast? Is the character of long-term unemployment the result of cyclical or structural causes? I discuss eight policy changes that would reduce the ranks of the unemployed and that would improve the efficiency of the labor market. Most of these proposals do not add big-ticket items to the Federal budget; their merits are independent of the question of how large the federal deficit should be at this time. El sorprendente incremento en el desempleo de Estados Unidos durante la Gran Recesion y la persistencia del desempleo de larga duracion plantean grandes interrogantes para la politica de empleo. ?Por que el desempleo crecio mas que lo que se habia predicho? ?Es la larga duracion del desempleo el resultado de causas ciclicas o estructurales? Se discuten ocho cambios de politica que reducirian el volumen de desempleo y que mejorarian la eficiencia del mercado de trabajo. La mayor parte de estas propuestas no suponen un incremento del presupuesto federal de Estados Unidos. Las aportaciones de esas medidas son independientes del problema de cuan grande deberia ser el deficit publico federal.
