Chinhui Juhn

Juhn will work on a book that combines economic analysis and personal interviews to examine the future of the U.S. workforce. She will look at what jobs are likely to exist in the future as globalization and technology reduce the need for workers in many areas. She will investigate whether current fertility patterns and investments in children are on course to meet those workforce requirements. Juhn will also examine how a changing labor market, marriage options, and challenges of work-life balance affect men’s and women’s desires for children and family.
