Abstract

Nübler focuses on how technological unemployment can be mitigated and job growth maintained. She analyses the way that different types of innovation and market forces affect job creation and destruction, as well as how those forces can be harnessed to support job creation. As well as intervention by governments to shape workforce skills, promote societal learning, influence the direction of technological change and innovation, and aid adjustment to new technologies, we need redistributive policies to ensure that productivity gains are more evenly shared.
