Globalization, Automation, and Career Paths by Professor James Tybout


Event Description

Lecture by Honory Doctor James Tybout



A large literature examines how import competition, offshoring, and/or technological progress have affected the incomes of different types of workers.  Less is known about the ways these shocks have influenced the evolution of workers’ careers:  their decisions to attend college, the occupations they move through, the skills they accumulate, and the unemployment spells they endure.
This lecture will take stock of some evidence on shifting career paths over recent decades and suggest how these shifts might have been shaped by globalization and automation.

After the lecture we are happy to welcome you to a reception in the Atrium, Kilen (Kilevej 14a, 2000 Frederiksberg) at 15.30 - 17.00.
