Some implications of these changes for the location of economic activities are suggested. Policy directions are then highlighted, including the need to develop human resources, to develop the new technological infrastructure, to develop the new economic infrastructure of service firms, to promote the new world of work, and to help workers at risk. Thierry Noyelle is senior research scholar with the Conservation of Human Resources Project, Columbia University, where he has worked since 1977. He has been a consultant to numerous governmental organizations, foundations, and private firms in the United States and abroad. His publications include Beyond Industrial Dualism (1986); Technology and Employment (1986); The Economic Transformation of American Cities (1984); and Services/ The New Economy (1981).
