Resumo
O artigo desenvolve uma leitura crítica da literatura que correlaciona os avanços tecnológicos da Indústria 4.0 com pioras nos níveis de desemprego e de desigualdade salarial. Alguns dos limites e inconsistências dessa literatura são destacados, especialmente a sua dificuldade de explicar movimentos contemporâneos da manufatura e suas consequências sociais. Argumenta-se então que uma análise baseada no arcabouço teórico da economia política pós-Keynesiana parece mais adequada para o estudo do tema, pois tal arcabouço sublinha a importância da demanda efetiva e do contexto político e internacional para a determinação do nível de emprego e salário. O artigo conclui por rejeitar a hipótese teórica do mainstream econômico que correlaciona desemprego e/ou desigualdade com progresso tecnológico.
