Description:

The diffusion of information and communication technologies is rapidly changing the structure of advanced economies, and fear of mass technological unemployment has emerged. This book addresses this controversy.

Synopsis:

The diffusion of information and communication technologies is rapidly changing the structure of advanced economies, raising new problems of technological unemployment. The view that market forces can easily counterbalance the labour-saving impact of innovation is contrasted in this book with empirical findings on aggregate compensation effects and on the consequences of product, process and organizational innovation in industries and services. After examining several policy aspects, new employment-friendly economic and innovation policies are proposed.
