Students the world over have always asked their elders, what should I study in order to get a good job? In this age of globalization and the Internet, the question involves a whole new dimension. Students in rich countries, such as the United States and Germany, fear their chosen trade or profession might be outsourced to a low-wage country.

Models, arguments, and some evidence are presented to make our case. In our conclusion, we raise a post-Gaia perspective and we ask whether the current self-re...
