Michaela Georgina Lexer

About

Dr. Michaela Georgina Lexer is a legal scholar whose work critically examines the intersection of artificial intelligence, labor markets, and social welfare systems. Her primary research areas include tax law, social security law, and the regulatory challenges posed by technological disruption. In her most cited work, "Artificial Intelligence and Labor Markets. A Critical Analysis of Solution Models from a Tax Law and Social Security Law Perspective" (2019), Lexer provides a rigorous legal analysis of proposed solutions to AI-driven labor market changes, such as unconditional basic income (UBI). Rather than accepting purely economic models, she interrogates their feasibility within existing legal frameworks, offering a nuanced perspective on how tax and social security systems must adapt. While her citation count is modest, her work is notable for bridging law, economics, and technology—a timely contribution as policymakers grapple with automation’s societal impacts. Lexer’s scholarship is essential reading for researchers interested in the legal dimensions of AI’s influence on employment and social protection.
