The Impact of Information Technology

The next three sections of this Technology and Globalization Issue Brief will examine the impact of the IT revolution in several critical areas:

  • Industrial structure and jobs
  • Workforce 
  • Financial markets

In each of these areas, we will identify ways in which the application of new information technologies promotes prosperity and enhances lives. But developments in IT are also causing some problems and raising some concerns in both areas, and the sections that follow will also look at some of those problems and concerns.
