What is the Future of Work in the Generative AI Era? A Marxist and Ricardian Analysis
There is an increasing public discourse of automation for white-collar professional jobs due to improvements in artificial intelligence (AI) capacities, raising the question about the contours of the future of work. Marx and Ricardo’s framework of technological labour displacement helps us understand the future of work in the context of AI. Marx’s discussion in Capital and Ricardo’s discussion in Principles of Political Economy reveal the common …
Geopolitical Instability and Political Autonomy in Global Cities
Does the political autonomy of a global city contribute to the preservation of global city status in the context of declining geopolitical stability from great power rivalry? The theoretical contribution in this article is that their success depends on political autonomy to retain cordial relations with all major geopolitical powers and the confidence of international investors, corporations and workers in a functioning rule of law framework. Foc…
Border Disputes in the Global Periphery amid Declining U.S. Hegemonic Influence
Contrary to popular expectations about a post-oil future, oil remains an important commodity in the global political economy and the world-system, in which peripheral economies rely on the export of raw material to earn foreign exchange. We argue that Venezuela’s aggressive geopolitical stance against its smaller neighbor Guyana emanates from Guyana’s newfound oil discoveries resulting in fast economic development in Guyana, the Maduro regimes’ d…
Discourse in the future of work
Why Race and Place Matter
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed various cybersecurity threats as more people relied on multiple digital communication modes to function socially and financially. In the 2021 National League of Cities report, responding to the economic impact of the pandemic, the U.S. Congress appropriated federal resources to ensure broadband connectivity through legislation. Despite these efforts, accessing reliable broadband in communities of color remained a per…
Job quality and automation
Social scientists have made predictions about the automation of jobs, as well as the negative consequences that technology has on job quality, but not how these phenomena are connected. Are occupations with a higher susceptibility of automation associated with lower job quality? This study involves an empirical examination of automation-related measures from Frey and Osborne and applies them to job quality variables (job satisfaction and self-rat…
Ethnic architecture and global cities
Adib Cure and Carrie Penabad (2023. “Cross Cultural Urbanism: The Case of Miami.” Ethnic and Racial Studies. Advance online publication. doi:10.1080/01419870.2023.2176718.) paint a vivid picture of Miami, pointing to its multicultural influence, suburban landscape and sense of community using an architectural perspective. The authors lay out the history of the city from white domination to Cuban domination, and from its modest origins to a bankin…
Robots and protest
The rising level of automation has increasingly attracted scholars' attention. On the other hand, there are many studies of the consequences of social movements, but relatively fewer studies focus on their economic consequences, and even fewer studies have examined their consequences on automation. This article bridges the gap between the two literatures by hypothesizing that a rising number of labor protests will lead to a higher level of automa…
Automation Is a Myth
Re-Embedding and Disembedding in Post-Socialist Hungary
The rise of populist authoritarianism is a substantial reversal of the liberal democratic path in Central and Eastern Europe, including Hungary. What explains Hungary’s authoritarian turn toward Orbánism and what are the components of Orbánism that consolidate its claim to power? This paper uses a Polányian perspective and argues that the populist authoritarian turn occurred in the context of the social dislocation of the post-socialist transitio…
Labor’s Capital and Worker Well-Being
Since the 1980s, the shareholder value revolution has undermined the position of workers and organized labor within US firms. At the same time, workers have paradoxically become one of the largest classes of shareholders through labor pension funds (LPF), including state public employee funds and private sector union-affiliated funds. Does workers’ concentrated ownership of capital in LPF represent a mechanism to advance worker interests against …
Political Activism and Basic Income Guarantee
Immigration and robots
Increasing concerns about automation of work raise the question what the demographic components are that promote the spread of technology. What is the relationship between the presence of immigrants and automation? This paper is divided into two parts: an empirical investigation and a historical case study. Empirically, we use data from the International Federation of Robotics and the American Community Survey to show that US counties that have a…
Constraints on policymaking in high sovereign debt countries
While sovereign debt has become a major constraint in the policymaking of most developed countries, this article asks why the choices in fiscal and monetary policy were not uniform among the highest sovereign debt countries: Italy and Japan. While Japan has been fairly unconstrained in economic policymaking over the last 25 years since the onset of the ‘Lost Decades,’ Italy has been very strongly constrained even as debt levels are higher in the …
