 Modern economies reward activities that extract value rather than create it. This must change to insure a capitalism that works for us all. <br/> In this scathing indictment of our current global financial system, The Value of Everything rigorously scrutinizes the way in which economic value has been determined and reveals how the difference between value creation and value extraction has become increasingly blurry. Mariana Mazzucato argues that this blurriness allowed certain actors in the economy to portray themselves as value creators, while in reality they were just moving existing value around or, even worse, destroying it. <br/> The book uses case studies--from Silicon Valley to the financial sector to big pharma--to show how the foggy notions of value create confusion between rents and profits, a difference that distorts the measurements of growth and GDP. <br/> The lesson here is urgent and sobering: to rescue our economy from the next, inevitable crisis and to foster longterm economic growth, we will need to rethink capitalism, rethink the role of public policy and the importance of the public sector, and redefine how we measure value in our society.
