The New Geography of Jobs is a nonfiction work of labor economics and urban economics in which Enrico Moretti examines why American cities have increasingly different economic futures. Published in 2012, the book argues that globalization and technological change have not made place irrelevant. Instead, they have concentrated innovative firms, highly educated workers, and high-paying opportunities in a limited number of metropolitan areas. Moretti contrasts prosperous brain hubs with former manufacturing centers facing job and population loss, while identifying a broad middle group whose trajectories remain uncertain. His central purpose is explanatory as well as policy oriented: to show how local economies grow, why the benefits of innovation extend beyond engineers and scientists, and why national averages can conceal severe regional divergence. Drawing on empirical research in employment, wages, education, migration, and industrial change, Moretti presents a readable account of how the location of work shapes opportunity, inequality, and community well-being across the United States.
