Summary/Abstract: This paper aims at approaching, in the first part, some theoretical aspects related to unemployment, focusing on its causes and reviewing the main causes of unemployment as reflected in international theories. In the second part of the paper we present the results of a research conducted on a sample of unemployed from Bihor county. One of the objectives of this research was to highlight the causes of unemployment perceived by those who experience this phenomenon. The hypothesis we started from was that the unemployed will tend to project to the outside the cause of their situation, self-blaming for the unemployment status being rarely invoked.
