New Frontiers: The Origins and Content of New Work, 1940–2018 (2022, methodology): “This paper systematically studies the emergence of new work in the United States between 1940 and 2018, building on path-breaking empirical work by Lin (2011) and theoretical work by Acemoglu and Restrepo (2018).”
Work of the Past, Work of the Future (2019, background): “3 percentage points of decline in non-college middle-skill employment is explained by the movement of non-college workers from middleskill into traditionally low-skill work. This is a qualitatively large change, and I will argue next that it has been economically consequential.(8) A foundational ass”
The Labor Market Impacts of Technological Change: From Unbridled Enthusiasm to Qualified Optimism to Vast Uncertainty (2022, methodology): “16 To analyze representative evidence over a substantial time horizon, Autor et al. (2021b) build on the approach pioneered by Lin (2011) to analyze data on new work creation in eight decades of U.S. data from 1940 through 2018.”
The future of skills: employment in 2030 (2017, result): “This is consistent with evidence suggesting that the rate of job creation in new technology industries has in fact slowed over recent decades (Lin, 2011; Frey and Berger, 2016).”
Agglomeration and Innovation (2014, unknown): “Lin (2014) finds that patent interferences are more likely to be observed between inventors located close to one another as opposed to those located farther apart—evidence that common knowledge inputs among independent inventors are highly localized.”
Drivers of disruption? Estimating the Uber effect (2018, background): “Third, a growing body of work examines how local labor markets adjust in response to the arrival of new technologies (Beaudry et al., 2010; Lin, 2011; Berger and Frey, 2015).”
The Race between Machine and Man: Implications of Technology for Growth, Factor Shares and Employment (2017, unknown): “Our first exhibit uses data from Lin (2011) on “new tasks,” in particular, measuring the extent to which there are novel jobs and tasks in each occupational group in 1980, 1990 and 2000 based on their appearance in the Dictionary of Occupational Titles in 1980 and 1990, and from US Census…”
Environmental Regulation and Green Skills: An Empirical Exploration (2018, background): “” For example, the summary for policy makers of the United Nations Environmental Programme ’ s report on the green economy (UNEP 2011) touts the employment bene ﬁ ts of a greener economy.”
Growing through Cities in Developing Countries (2014, unknown): “According to Lin (2011), the greater proportion of workers employed in new work in larger cities is not associated with faster productivity growth. In a rare study of the broader determinants of productivity growth in Italian cities, Cingano and Schivardi (2004) highlight the importance of both spec”
