摘要

本文通过对观察到的计算机化与收入之间的相关性提供新的解释，为不断加剧的不平等现象提供了新的解释。论点是，随着计算机将工作转变为一种更加知识密集型的活动，位于信息流关键节点的职业获得了更大的结构权力，从而获得了更高的工资。将基于职业信息网络的信息流中的职业位置测量与1979-2016年当前人口调查相结合，分析显示，与计算机化相关的技能范围无关，能够更多地获取和控制信息的职业的工资溢价不断上升。

Why Has Computerization Increased Wage Inequality? Information, Occupational Structural Power, and Wage Inequality

This article offers a new account of rising inequality by providing a new explanation for the observed correlation between computerization and earnings. The argument is that as computers transformed work into a more knowledge-intensive activity, occupations located at critical junctions of information flow have gained greater structural power, and thereby higher wages. Combining occupational measures for location in the information flow based on the Occupational Information Network with the 1979–2016 Current Population Surveys, the analyses reveal a rising wage premium for occupations with greater access to and control of information, independent of the spectrum of skills related to computerization.
