ICTs, knowledge work and employment: the challenges to Europe.
The long-term welfare gains associated with the emerging information society should not be taken for granted. When aggregate output grows substantially faster than productivity, unemployment has proved to decline significantly—a virtuous circle in which efficiency-enhancing technologies clearly pla...
