Technology, Labour, and Inequality
You are invited to explore a pivotal shift shaping our economies. Research shows a rapid decline in middle-skill jobs across the U.S. and Europe, paired with a substantial rise in employment at both the high and low ends of the skill spectrum. This is the phenomenon of "job polarisation." In our discussion, we will navigate the challenges it creates for both mature and developing economies. You will see why understanding job polarisation fully requires us to integrate perspectives from Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. Finally, let's identify together how this trend opens avenues for action. We will consider how it can motivate state and private actors—perhaps including you—to reimagine and strengthen investments in education, skills, and training.
