We argue theoretically and document empirically that aging leads to greater (industrial) automation, and in particular … older to middle-aged workers — is associated with greater adoption of robots and other automation technologies across … development of automation technologies in countries undergoing greater demographic change. Our directed technological change model …

We study the implications of robot adoption at the level of individual firms using a rich panel data-set of Spanish manufacturing firms over a 27-year period (1990-2016). We focus on three central questions: (1) Which firms adopt robots? (2) What are the labor market effects of robot adoption at...

Using a newly collected dataset at the plant level from 2014 to 2018, we provide the first microscopic portrait of robotization in Germany and study the correlates of robot adoption. Our descriptive analysis uncovers five stylized facts: (1) Robot use is relatively rare. (2) The distribution of...
