Navigating technological shifts
This paper asks whether workers’ experience of working with new technologies and workers’ perceived threats of new technologies are associated with expected well-being. Using survey data for 25 OECD countries we find that both experiences of new technologies and threats of new technologies are associated with more concern about expected well-being. Controlling for the negative experiences of COVID-19 on workers and their macroeconomic outlook bot…
Artificial Intelligence Perceptions and Life Satisfaction
The paper estimates whether there is any relationship between life satisfaction and people’s perceptions towards artificial intelligence. Using data from 39 European countries collected in 2021, it is consistently found that people with negative perceptions report lower life satisfaction. This finding is robust across a number of robustness checks. This provides further evidence that people may fear some new technologies, in this case artificial …
Fear of Robots and Life Satisfaction
The use of robots and in particular next-generation robots in the production of goods and services is increasing. What impact robots are having on people’s quality of life, including workers, is as yet under-explored. This paper provides initial findings examining whether fear of robots is correlated with one aspect of quality of life: life satisfaction. After controlling for individual effects and country effects and using both standard ordinary…
Bribery, motivations for bribery and life satisfaction in transitional countries
The resource curse without natural resources
Many resource-rich countries have experienced a range of negative economic and political effects from natural resource extraction, often lumped together as the 'resource curse'. This article investigates to what extent expectations of future natural resource booms in So Tom e Prncipe and Madagascar led to 'resource curse' effects, even though these countries did not experience the expected booms. It finds that both countries experienced resource …

A Multilateral Decomposition of Racial Wage Differentials in the 1994 South African Labour Market
This paper develops a new multilateral decomposition procedure for the analysis of wage differentials and applies this to the racial wage hierarchy in the South African labour market. Using microdata on male workers from the 1994 October Household survey, it is found that whites received the highest wages followed by asians, then coloureds and finally blacks. Productivity differences are shown to explain approximately two thirds of the white and …
