Download or read book Technological Change and Labor Markets written by Reyna Elizabeth Rodríguez Pérez and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In developed countries like the US, Germany and the UK it has been observed that workers who perform non-routine activities, either cognitive or manual, have benefited in terms of employment and income, while those performing routinary tasks have seen their job prospects and wages decline. This has led to a polarization of the labor markets and to a decrease in certain measures of inequality. This phenomenon has been attributed to task-biased technological change (TBTC), which differs from the skilled biased technological change in the fact that not only highly skilled workers have benefited from technology advancement. This book presents evidence of how digitalization and task-biased technological change are affecting the labor markets of different regions of the world and examines the factors that cause this inequality among nations. It examines recent issues around the effect of task-biased technological change on labor markets and the economy in general, with a comparison of different countries in Central and Eastern Europe, North America, and Latin America, as well as in other regions of the world. The incorporation of the abovementioned regions presents relevant particularities for the subject matter addressed in the book. The book also considers questions such as how labor market effects differ by gender and what the impact of digital skills on employment, inequalities and public policies might be. In so doing, it identifies the advances, opportunities, and changes that have taken place, while also making public policy proposals. The main market for the book is the global community of graduate students and researchers in the field of economics and, specifically, in the study of labor markets.

This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Na economia dos transportes estudam-se os mercados, no seu desempenho em tempo, na interação com o espaço e nos reflexos externos, num contexto de possível regulação e sob o objetivo de uma mobilidade sustentável. Esta deverá ser infra-máxima, a um preço moderador do consumo. O transporte é um importante sector e empregador. Cresce com a economia e contribui para que se cresça mais. É um elemento relevante da despesa das famílias e de Investimento. Permite o comércio, com consequências para a organização interna, regional e mundial da produção. Altera padrões de localização de empresas, pessoas e aglomerados urbanos, bem como estilos de vida. Gera externalidades positivas, aproximando ideias e mercados, mas é também um poluidor; o congestionamento é outra externalidade a lesar desempenho, procura e custos, sempre condicionados pelo tempo. As pessoas usam mais o automóvel. Nas mercadorias, dominam o navio e o camião. Também se abordam os projetos de infra-estruturas e as políticas.

This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 903 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La tercera edición de la colección "Así habla el Externado" examina el impacto que las tecnologías disruptivas y la transformación digital están teniendo sobre el conjunto de la sociedad, bajo una lente humanista e interdisciplinar, propia de nuestra institución. La Cuarta Revolución Industrial (4RI), que ha permeado todos los campos de la actividad humana y la sociedad, ofrece la inmensa oportunidad de reducir las brechas de conocimiento e ingreso económico y generar progreso social y democrático, pero puede también tener el efecto contrario. El lector y la lectora encontrarán en estos cuatro tomos reflexiones valiosas, en sus 74escritos, para comprender en todo su alcance estas innovaciones y poder contribuir así a la construcción de realidades cada vez más incluyentes y participativas. Este tomo III, titulado "Derecho, innovación y tecnología: fundamentos para una Lex Informático", tiene por objeto responder la siguiente pregunta: ¿de qué manera las nuevas tecnologías y la economía colaborativa están transformando el derecho, sus principios e instituciones? Para ello, el presente volumen estudia en detalle las promesas, retos y problemas jurídicos suscitados por la aplicación de la inteligencia artificial, el Big Data, el Blockchain y el loT en distintos ámbitos del derecho público y privado. Los diferentes capítulos presentan debates en torno a la forma en que dichas tecnologías vienen afectando profundamente al mundo del derecho, con el fin de construir un marco conceptual que no solo sirva de base para sostener una discusión académica sólidamente fundamentada sobre estos temas, sino también para despejar las dudas jurídicas que pueden existir con el fin de facilitar y acelerar el desarrollo e implementación práctica de estas tecnologías, así como de contribuir a orientar la agenda académica sobre estos asuntos en América Latina.
