Der Staat ohne Arbeitslose (The State Without the Unemployed) is a 1931 work by Ernst Glaeser and Franz Carl Weiskopf, featuring an epilogue by Alfred Kurella. The book serves as a documentation of the Soviet Union's first five-year plan, presented through a series of photomontages created by John Heartfield. It aims to illustrate the transition from an agricultural to an industrialized society, highlighting financial planning, statistics, and social goals. The work is noted for its 'book film' style, where images are organized organically to provide a visual narrative of Soviet progress.
