Macro / Labor Seminar

FAU/IAB-Seminar Macroeconomics and Labor Markets

Summer Semester 2022

The Chairs of Macroeconomics (Christian Merkl) and Global Governance (Christoph Moser) at FAU and the Macroeconomic domain at IAB co-organize a joint seminar series at the intersection of macroeconomics, trade and labor economics.

A preliminary schedule can be found here. Zoom login information will be distributed by e-mail.

If you are a researcher and you are interested to join the talks, please send an e-mail to macrolabor.seminar@gmail.com.

 

The next seminar will be held in in-person on the IAB premises (building RE100, room E10, Regensburger Str. 100, 90478 Nürnberg) on Tuesday, May 10th, at noon (German time):

Harald Fadinger (University of Mannheim) will talk about:
“Robot imports and firm-level outcomes” (joint work with Alessandra Bonfiglioli, Rosario Crino and Gino Gancia).

Abstract:
We use French data over the 1994-2013 period to study how imports of industrial robots affect firm-level outcomes. Guided by a simple model, we develop various empirical strategies to identify the causal effects of robot adoption. Our results suggest that, while demand shocks generate a positive correlation between robot imports and employment at the firm level, exogenous exposure to automation leads to job losses. We also find that robot exposure increases productivity and some evidence that it may increase the relative demand for high-skill professions.
