| dc.description.abstract | Are robots stealing jobs? A large majority of Europeans think they do. This paper shedslight on the drivers of anxiety of the European population about automation and possiblejob replacement. We find that fears of automation are linked to individual characteristics –“who you are” – but also macro ones – “where you’re born”. Our results show that women,less educated individuals, blue-collar workers and those that are not skilled in ICT are moreconcerned with robotization, but younger individuals fear for their own jobs the most. Atthe country-level, economies with higher shares of employment in manufacturing industryand agriculture, higher GDP growth and higher unemployment rates are more likely to fearthe impact of new technologies, hinting at a role of both structural and cyclical factors. | pt_PT |
