IZA World of Labor video on inequality and post transition in emerging economies

IZA World of Labor video on inequality and post transition in emerging economies with Johanna Fajardo from UNDP – UN Development Programme, Jeanne Lafortune from Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and Gustavo de Souza from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
 

• Question for Johanna Fajardo: It shows that there is a substantial increase in poverty all over the world during the pandemic – there was also an effort from governments to solve poverty problems – why were they not enough?
• Question for Jeanne Lafortune: There is a labor market polarization in most rich Western countries and you find nothing like that in Latin America?
• Question for Gustavo de Souza: Countries are taxing the introduction of foreign technologies – you show that leads to lower employment of high-skilled workers and lower earnings for them?
