Lo Stato Imprenditore

Book •
In "Lo Stato Imprenditore" (The Entrepreneurial State), Mariana Mazzucato challenges the conventional view of the public sector as bureaucratic and inefficient.

She argues that the state has been a crucial investor and innovator in many sectors, driving technological advancements and economic growth.

Mazzucato highlights examples such as the development of the internet, pharmaceuticals, and renewable energy, where government funding and research played a vital role.

She critiques the tendency to privatize the rewards of innovation while socializing the risks, advocating for a more equitable distribution of benefits.

The book calls for a new framework that recognizes and values the state's entrepreneurial role in shaping the economy.

Mazzucato proposes policies that allow the public sector to capture a greater share of the value it creates, fostering sustainable and inclusive innovation.
