In 'The Value of Everything', Mariana Mazzucato offers a scathing indictment of our current global financial system, rigorously scrutinizing the way in which economic value has been accounted and revealing how economic theory has failed to clearly delineate the difference between value creation and value extraction. Mazzucato argues that the increasingly blurry distinction between the two categories has allowed certain actors in the economy to portray themselves as value creators, while in reality they are just moving around existing value or, even worse, destroying it.
Mariana Francesca Mazzucato is an Italian-American economist and academic. She is a professor in the Economics of Innovation and Public Value at University College London (UCL) and founding director of the UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP). She is best known for her work on dynamics of technological change, the role of the public sector in innovation, and the concept of value in economics. The New Republic have called her one of the "most important thinkers about innovation".
