  1. 1. Automation and the Consequences of Occupational Decline

    Author : Sofia Hernnäs; Georg Graetz; Per-Anders Edin; Sebastian Findeisen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; technological change; automation; routine-biased technological change; skill prices; skill bundling; occupations; inequality; health; death of despair; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Essay I. Automation affects workers because it affects the return to their skills when performing different tasks. I propose a general equilibrium model of occupational choice and technological change which takes two important labor market features into account: (i) automation happens to tasks and (ii) workers have bundled skills.

    Abstract : By engaging with COBOL, a detested and would-be obsolete programming language, the dark sides of automation are examined in this thesis: hidden workforces and computational infrastructures that are, in reality, central to the execution and maintenance of global economic and informational flows. Frictions within these flows are made more visible in moments of crisis when asymmetrical power structures are surfaced, as demonstrated in an analysis of the infamous Y2K Bug, its connection to the outsourcing boom in India and the legacy of COBOL.

    Abstract : Studier av framtiden för arbete och livslångt lärande omfattar ett brett spektrum av teman, inklusive digitaliseringens och robotiseringens inflytande på färdigheter och kompetenser. För att utvärdera effekten av "avancerad" teknologi för kompetens i arbetet kräver många nationella och internationella organisationer och privata konsultföretag åtgärder, levererar förutsägelser och förbereder planer för framtiden.
