This job is "getting old" : measuring changes in job opportunities using occupational age structure
Autor, David H.; Dorn, David - 2009
High- and low-wage occupations are expanding rapidly relative to middle-wage occupations in both the U.S. and the E.U. We study the reallocation of workers from middle-skill occupations towards the tails of the occupational skill distribution by analyzing changes in age structure within and...

Import competition and the great US employment sag of the 2000s
Acemoglu, Daron; Autor, David H.; Dorn, David; Hanson, … - 2015
Even before the Great Recession, U.S. employment growth was unimpressive. Between 2000 and 2007, the economy gave back the considerable employment gains achieved during the 1990s, with a historic contraction in manufacturing employment being a prime contributor to the slump. We estimate that...

Foreign Competition and Domestic Innovation : Evidence from U.S. Patents
Autor, David H. - 2016
The competitive shock to the U.S. manufacturing sector spurred by rising China import competition could either catalyze or stifle innovation. Using three distinct sources of variation to identify rising trade exposure, we provide a causal analysis of the effect of surging import competition on...

Foreign Competition and Domestic Innovation : Evidence from U.S. Patents
Autor, David H. - 2019
Manufacturing accounts for more than three-quarters of U.S. corporate patents. The competitive shock to this sector emanating from China's economic ascent could in theory either augment or stifle U.S. innovation. Using three decades of U.S. patents matched to corporate owners, we quantify how...
