Tiivistelmä: | This study tests together three possible determinants of the increase in the ratio btw. skilled and unskilled workers: R&D, organizational change, and foreign direct investment (FDI). The results, regarding a panel of 488 Italian manufacturing firms form 1989 to 1997, suggest the statistical significance of the impact of organisational change, while they tend to exclude a direct relation btw. R&D spending and skill upgrading. With reference to FDIs, the nature of the data and the results do not permit the exclusion of their possible influence. |
