Abstract: Regional disparities in the unemployment represent for Switzerland a new regional problem. The average unemployment rate has tendentially increased in the last twenty years. In the last two years we can observe a remarkable growth in the number of unemployed. On the other side unemployment disparities show a regional pattern, that progress in an other way as the regional pattern of wealth disparities. In the regional economics literature, regional disparities in the unemployment rate are treated as a cyclical phenomenon. We have also taken this statement. The cyclical development of the regional disparities in the unemployment rate is analysed by the regional sensibility to the whole unemployment at the national level. We found out, for the period 1979-1992, that the regional sensibility to the unemployment depends on the average cantonal unemployment rate and also on the spatial changement in the distribution of the foreign workers.
