Here's one great article from The New Republic:

And another good one on how the changes happening to how we train and recruit new workers:

Many of the changes in the 2nd article date back to something mentioned in the 1st -- when faced with a stagnant economy circa 1987 American business began a ruthless restructuring that has maintained our share of the world GDP at around 25%. But we haven't completed the "rewiring" of our Network to from one dominated by long-lived Corporations to one in which jobs and companies have much shorter "half-lives" before they decay.
