内容简介

The first comprehensive account of the growing dominance of the intangible economy
Early in the twenty-first century, a quiet revolution occurred. For the first time, the major developed economies began to invest more in intangible assets, like design, branding, R&D, and software, than in tangible assets, like machinery, buildings, and computers. For all sorts of businesses, from tech firms and pharma companies to coffee shops and gyms, the ability to deploy assets that one can neither see nor touch is increasingly the main source of long-term success.
But this is not just a familiar story of the so-called new economy. Capitalism without Capital shows that the growing importance of intangible assets has also played a role in some of the big economic changes of the last decade. The rise of intangible investment is, Jonathan Haskel and Stian Westlake argue, an underappreciated cause of phenomena from economic inequality to stagnating productivity.
Haskel and Westlake bring together a decade of research on how to measure intangible investment and its impact on national accounts, showing the amount different countries invest in intangibles, how this has changed over time, and the latest thinking on how to assess this. They explore the unusual economic characteristics of intangible investment, and discuss how these features make an intangible-rich economy fundamentally different from one based on tangibles.
Capitalism without Capital concludes by presenting three possible scenarios for what the future of an intangible world might be like, and by outlining how managers, investors, and policymakers can exploit the characteristics of an intangible age to grow their businesses, portfolios, and economies.

评论 ······
“无形资产”从实践到概念都不新的,视角算比较新的.
有些地方算 speculative，不过肯定值五星了。
原版比翻译版好读。
No 5 of 2020 . 读这本书的感觉就像在读论文，相对比较通俗易懂的学术著作，讲了在当今社会无形资产的对社会各方面的影响和重要性。从其定义发展讲起，阐明了四个基本特征；这四个特征对经济和社会结构的影响以及国家政策制定者的挑战；然后建议公司应该如何对待无形资产，从管理层到投资领域的调整；最后对政策制定者的建议。 总体而言，比较容易理解，而且对当今社会的资本流向和整体影响有一个更好的宏观概念。
