Description

Exploring the impact of technology on the world of work, this book provides a comprehensive guide to navigating the era of radical digital advancements. Through case studies and examples from across the EU, UK, and US, it examines the effects of robots, algorithms, and online platforms on workplaces and proposes a new map for the digital age.

The book delves into the consequences of digital tools on the labour market and social institutions, challenging preliminary analyses that forecast the threat of human work obsolescence. Instead, it argues that digital tools are more likely to replace managerial roles and intensify organisational processes, highlighting the need for effective regulation to balance flexibility and protection.

With a focus on the governance of technology, the book offers a guide to explore the promises and perils of digital transformation, ensuring that progress favours the many. This thought-provoking analysis is essential for anyone seeking to understand the complex relationships between technology, work, and society.
