A handful of studies have investigated (điều tra) the effects (tác động) of robots on workers in advanced economies. According to a recent report from the World Bank (2016), 1.8 billion jobs in developing countries are susceptible (dễ bị ảnh hưởng, dễ bị tổn thương) to automation (tự động hóa). Given the inability of labor markets to adjust to rapid changes, there is a growing concern that the effect of automation and robotization in emerging economies may increase inequality (bất bình đẳng) and social unrest (bất ổn xã hội). Yet, we still know very little about the impact of robots in developing countries. In this paper we analyze (phân tích) the effects of exposure to industrial robots in the Chinese labor market. Using aggregate data from Chinese prefectural cities (2000-2016) and individual longitudinal data from China, we find a large negative impact of robot exposure on employment and wages of Chinese workers. Effects are concentrated in the state-owned sector and are larger among low-skilled, male, and prime-age and older workers. Furthermore, we find evidence that exposure to robots affected internal mobility and increased the number of labor-related strikes (đình công) and protests (biểu tình).
