Smart Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Algorithms (STARA): Employees’ perceptions of our future workplace (2017, background): “This comes at a time where income inequality is on the rise (Goos & Manning, 2007; Goos, Manning, & Salomons, 2009; David & Dorn, 2013).”
Occupational Tasks and Changes in the Wage Structure (2011, unknown): “Like many recent papers (Goos and Manning (2007), Goos, Manning and Salomons (2010), Crinó (2010)) that study the task content of jobs, and in particular their offshorability, we use the precise choice of base year for studying changes in inequality during the 1980s should not have much impact on…”
Can a Task-Based Approach Explain the Recent Changes in the German Wage Structure? (2009, background): “If task coefficient are interpreted as prices (rewards for performing such tasks in terms of higher wages), the polarization hypothesis of Goos and Manning (2007) would predict a U–shaped pattern with wages both at the top and at the bottom of the distribution growing relative to the middle of the…”
Polanyi's Paradox and the Shape of Employment Growth (2014, unknown): “… is strongly associated with employment polarization at the level of industries, localities, and national labor markets (Autor, Katz, and Kearney, 2006 and 2008; Goos and Manning, 2007; Autor and Dorn, 2013a; Michaels, Natraj, and Van Reenen, 2014;…”
Racing with or Against the Machine? Evidence from Europe (2016, unknown): “Hence, as shown in the literature on job polarization (e.g. see Goos and Manning 2007; Autor and Dorn 2013; Goos et al. 2014), there is a shift in employment away from occupations that are more routine towards those that are less routine.”
The impact of automation on employment: just the usual structural change? (2018, background): “As routinized work is often executed by medium-skilled workers, this substitution effectively “polarizes” [25,29,30] or “hollows out’ [31] the labor force, with fiercer competition and thereby wage stagnation, particular for middle and lower skilled work.”
Immigration, Skill Mix, and Capital Skill Complementarity (2011, background): “…these estimates say manufacturing automation complements middle- relative to low- skilled workers, which is perhaps surprising in light of occupational evidence suggesting that computerization reduces demand for middle-skilled workers (Autor, Katz, and Kearney 2006, 2008; Goos and Manning, 2007).”
Where Have the Middle-Wage Workers Gone? A Study of Polarization Using Panel Data (2016, background): “1 Pioneering work by Autor, Levy, and Murnane (2003), Autor, Katz, and Kearney (2006) and Goos and Manning (2007) has linked the polarization phenomenon to the occupational structure of the economy, and in particular to the task content of different occupations. Workers in the middle of the wage dis”
Benign Effects of Automation: New Evidence from Patent Texts (2018, unknown): “…theoretical contributions (e.g., Acemoglu & Autor, 2011; Acemoglu & Restrepo, 2018) and empirical contributions (e.g., Autor, Levy, & Murnane, 2003; Goos & Manning, 2007; Autor & Dorn, 2013; Michaels, Natraj, & van Reenen, 2014; Akerman, Gaarder, & Mogstad, 2015; Graetz & Michaels, 2018; Acemoglu…”
The Labor Market Impacts of Technological Change: From Unbridled Enthusiasm to Qualified Optimism to Vast Uncertainty (2022, background): “…and of course, critiquing it vigorously (Acemoglu and Autor, 2011; Acemoglu and Restrepo, 2021; Autor and Dorn, 2013; Autor et al., 2006; Deming, 2017; Goos and Manning, 2007; Goos et al., 2009, 2014; Gregory et al., 2021; Harrigan et al., 2021; Levy and Murnane, 2004; and Michaels et al., 2014).”
Upgrading or Polarization? Occupational Change in Britain, Germany, Spain and Switzerland, 1990-2008 (2010, unknown): “In any case, previous analyses for Britain suggest that results are very similar regardless of whether a job is defined by occupation alone or a combination of occupation and industry (Goos and Manning 2007, p. 121).”
Robots, Tasks and Trade (2018, unknown): “14 Following Graetz and Michaels (2018), we constructed an industry-level measure of replaceability using data from IFR on robot applications, the US census of occupational classifications and the distribution of hours worked across occupations and industries from the 1980 US Census.”
Spillovers from High-Skill Consumption to Low-Skill Labor Markets (2007, background): “See Goos and Manning (2007) for the case of the United Kingdom; Spitz-Oener (2006) for Germany; and Goos, Manning, and Salomons (2009) for a larger set of European countries.”
