Abstract	"- Digitalisation has proven to be a global megatrend with immense consequences for politics, the economy and society. Technological change including high-performance IT systems, new network infrastructures, robotics, algorithms and artificial intelligence pose new challenges on industry, labour market and social as well as technology policy. Due to these innovations, there is considerable potential for rationalisation and automatization of jobs, but also for social innovations.; - The strategic approaches to digitalisation in different national economies depend on institutional conditions, traditions and power relations. Here, the German model based on social partnership and corporatism is of particular interest - especially for the Nordic countries, which feature similar arrangements. The paper at hand therefore discusses three initiatives taken in Germany for technological ('Industry 4.0') and social ('Work 4.0') innovations as well as for new forms of work in the platform economy (crowdworking).; -?? The debate on digitalisation in Germany has for a long time been restricted to technological and economic aspects, while the social dimension only played a minor role. Within the projects 'Industry 4.0' and 'Work 4.0', more attention is being paid on working conditions and other social issues. In general, the systematic involvement of key actors such as trade unions and employers' associations and the revitalisation of corporatist structures seem to be a promising strategy. However, concerning new forms of work, the social partners appear to be divided over crucial questions such as legal employment status, social protection, codetermination and interest representation. Here, German corporatism needs to prove its capability to shape digitalization on a cooperative basis." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku).
