Employment Impact of Innovation
Evidence and Policy
Introduction
The diffusion of information and communication technologies is rapidly changing the structure of advanced economies, raising new problems of technological unemployment.

Policy Recommendations
After examining several policy aspects, new employment-friendly economic and innovation policies are proposed.
