Abstract: The relationship between unemployment and economic growth has long been a critical area of economic research. 1Unemployment is often seen as a direct result of economic downturns or structural economic shifts, while economic growth tends to be linked with improved employment opportunities, income levels, and living standards. However, these relationships are often not as straightforward as they seem. In particular, 2 the role of alcohol consumption as a mediator between unemployment and economic growth remains an understudied but potentially influential factor. Alcohol consumption can have significant economic and social implications, affecting both individuals' well-being and broader societal economic conditions.
