Summary/Abstract: The paper characterizes the selected theories of the labor market, starting from the classical theories, through the Keyenesian, neoclassical and neo-Keynesian theories and ending with the concepts that point at the possibility of unemployment in the conditions of equilibrium on the labor market, in the context of the essential principle of the EU economic policy related to equal chances.
