Description
Albert Wenger is a partner at Union Square Ventures as well as a prolific thinker and writer. His “World After Capital” is an evolving digital book project that looks at a set of megatrend shifts as the world moves between economic paradigms from the Industrial Age to the Knowledge Age. In this wide-ranging conversation, he and NLW discuss: Why attention is at the center of the new Knowledge Age Why markets can’t price crucial needs such as pandemic preparedness Why the new era will be defined by three categories of freedoms: economic freedom, information freedom and psychological freedom Why universal basic income has an important role to play in economic freedom How UBI could avoid political capture Why technology is inherently deflationary Why real estate, education and health care should be much cheaper than they are Why community currencies could be a key innovation from the current crisis
