In the interest of expanding the general level of latex fu, the
difference stems from \em version \emph:  \em switches the current
font to emphasized in the current scope, whereas \emph is a command
that formats its argument emphasizedly.

Thus {\em ... } and \emph{...} achieve similar results, but \em{ ... }
switches the top-level font, which is followed by a grouping {} (which
likley does nothing).
