Historically, emerging technologies have often been hailed as a way to increase welfare and reduce social and economic inequalities. This chapter, however, will show how emerging technologies may be the source of increasing global inequalities. First, it discusses how new use contexts afforded by technologies may increase inequality, for instance by disrupting labor markets. Second, it shows how emerging technologies generate new conditions of production, which may lead to the degradation of work and exploitation of workers. Third, it explains how emerging technologies affect the distribution of power in the workplace, both leading to a process of deskilling and, paradoxically, requiring more skilled work while people have to manage increasingly complex systems.
