Danes ob 14. uri bo na Kemijskem inštitutu predstavljen slovenski prevod knjige “Entrepreneurial State” Mariane Mazzucato, ene ključnih knjig zadnjega desetletja. Knjiga je porušila mite o tem, kdo dejansko stoji za prebojnimi inovacijami in kdo ustvarja vrednost v gospodarstvu. Ob predstavitvi knjige bo okrogla miza, na kateri bodo sodelovali predstavniki gospodarstva, politike in akademske sfere.
Za tiste, ki knjige (še) ne poznate, je spodaj nekaj odstavkov iz uvoda angleške verzije knjige.
Across the globe, countries, including in the developing world, look to emulate the success of the US economy. In doing so, they look at the power of ‘market-driven’ mechanisms, versus what might seem like old-style, State-driven mechanisms in places like Europe or the ex– Soviet Union. But the United States is not what it seems. The preacher of the small State, free-market doctrine has for decades been directing large public investment programs in technology and innovation that underlie its past and current economic success. From the Internet to biotech and even shale gas, the US State has been the key driver of innovation-led growth—willing to invest in the most uncertain phase of the innovation cycle and let business hop on for the easier ride down the way.
