Call for papers!

7. Sep. 2022

on labour market effects and social impact of technological transformation, globalisation and demographic change

Through 10 September the UNTANGLED project is accepting papers and extended abstracts for our first conference, Labour market effects and social impact of technological transformation, globalisation and demographic change. The event will take place in Brussels on 9 November 2022 and feature a keynote address from Anna Salomons, Professor of Employment and Inequality at Utrecht University.

Please submit full papers or extended abstracts to Ilse Tobback at: ilse.tobback@kuleuven.be.

We welcome contributions addressing the implications of technological transformation, globalisation and demographic change for:

  • Heterogenous impacts of mega trends on labour market outcomes
  • Work related migration and skills
  • Education and future skill needs, productivity growth
  • (Regional/Rural-urban) convergence/divergence, EU economic governance, trade
  • Technology and human capital
  • (Wage/regional) inequality, social policy
  • Covering the combined impact of two or more of the driving forces – technological transformation, globalisation, and demographic change – is considered an added value.

All the detailed information is in the Call for Papers below. Any queries can be emailed to Ilse Tobback at: ilse.tobback@kuleuven.be
