    Abstract

    discuss the wider benefits of a four-day working week for the economy, emphasising the positive effects on the aggregate demand, aggregate supply, labour market, and in the domain of political economy. I then discuss the various ways in which firms could adjust to a shorter working week, to minimize the disruption to the economy of its implementation.
