"Power & Progress": Daron Acemoglu

Описание к видео "Power & Progress": Daron Acemoglu

We are living in an age of incredible technological innovation. But is it actually benefitting humanity?

MIT Professors Daron Acemoglu and Simon Johnson have a tremendous new book on this exact question: “Power and Progress: Our Thousand-Year Struggle over Technology and Prosperity”.

Professor Daron Acemoglu joins me today.

We discuss:

• Why social scientists should pay attention to ‘vision’
• Did automation cause premature deindustrialisation?
• Is firm size important?
• Why did wages rise so rapidly in South Korea?
• What’s caused the fall in worker power?
• Why has automation increased?
• How can technology be redirected?
