We are in the early stages of a long-term shift from mass labor to highly skilled elite labor, accompanied by increasing automation in the production of goods and the delivery of services. Workerless factories and virtual companies loom on the horizon. While the emerging knowledge sector and new markets abroad will create some new jobs, these will be too few to absorb the millions of workers displaced by new technologies in the manufacturing and service sectors. Although unemployment is still relatively low, it can be expected to climb steadily and inexorably as the global economy catapults into the Information Age over the course of the next half century. Every nation will have to grapple with the question of what to do with the millions of people whose labor is needed less, or not at all, in an ever more automated global economy.

The production of goods & the delivery of services have become increasingly automated around the globe, & too few new jobs are being created to absorb the millions of workers displaced by technological advances in the manufacturing & service sectors. As unemployment rates continue to climb, every nation will have to grapple with the question of what to do with the people whose labor will not be needed in the automated global economy. Provisional answers might include the implementation of a 30-hour work week, the transformation of Third Sector (social economy) politics, & the underwriting of a social income.

Der bekannte Publizist, Politikberater und Vorstand einer Stiftung für wirtschaftliche Trends (zuletzt: "Access", BA 11/00) veröffentlicht hier einen vielschichtigen, illuminierten Text. Er behandelt grundlegend die Weltenergielage, welche ganz auf der knapper werdenden Förderung des Erdöls basiert. Die größten Erdöllager befinden sich im Nahen Osten, was ihn zu geo- und kulturpolitischen Abhandlungen führt, u.a. zum Islam und zum Terrorismus. Die politischen Spannungen werden seiner Ansicht nach um so manche zunehmen, je knapper die Erdölressourcen sind. Deshalb sieht er einen Ausweg in der Entwicklung der Wasserstofftechnologie, welche durch Brennstoffzellen eine dezentrale Nutzung zulässt. Ein engagierter, breit gefächerter Essay, der weithaus zugänglicher ist, als er sich von außen gibt. Sehr gute Bearbeitung einer bleibenden Problematik. (2) (Jürgen Plieninger)
