big shrunk, withdrew and fall back. Economy growth reached the
lowest degree and this directly reflected on the production level

The previous regime adopted old policies in solving the unemployment
phenomenon. They didn’t take into consideration the negative impact
of the huge masses of the unemployed on society. The years proceeded
