  • Why firms actually underpay their workers? Prof. Arin Dube

    Why firms actually underpay their workers? Prof. Arin Dube
    Jun 4 2026

    For decades, productivity and wages grew together. Then they didn't. Since the 1970s, workers across the developed world have become significantly more productive, yet their wages have largely stagnated. Where did the gains go, and what can policy actually do about it?

    In this episode, we examine the central argument of The Wage Standard, the new book by labor economist Arindrajit Dube. Dube argues that the decoupling of wages from productivity is not an inevitable consequence of technological change or globalization, but a political and institutional failure, one that can be reversed. We walk through the mechanisms behind wage stagnation, the role of market power in labor markets, and the policy levers Dube proposes to restore the link between work and prosperity.
