As with previous technological revolutions, innovations in the online world have triggered transformations in the labor market and the economy. While the Internet is trumpeted as a great job creator, there are also downsides that need to be identified and dealt with. The book discusses the following topics:
- Is the Internet a net creator of jobs?
- How are job profiles changed by the digital economy?
- What are the impacts on income distribution? Is it a winner-takes-all tournament?
- What models can facilitate adjustment without slowing innovation?
