Objective
The proposal is concerned with the impact of the knowledge economy on employment generation in Europe. It will first construct knowledge indicators for selected European countries, such as ICT (information and communication technology) capital, skilled labour, R&D and other intangible expenditures. Taxonomies of industries will be constructed whereby industries are divided according to their intensity of use of knowledge indicators. Employment prospects in knowledge intensive industries in all EU countries will be analysed contrasting with the position in more traditional sectors and with the US. Special attention will be given to the under-researched service activities. This analysis will be supplemented by a detailed examination of the demand for skilled labour, productivity and growth in the knowledge economy and the impact of the institutional infrastructure on the diffusion of innovation.
