The Acceleration of the Economy
The acceleration of our daily lives is fueled by novelty, innovation, and, in turn, the dematerialization of goods. In his book La Place du marché [The Place of the Market], the economist Michel Henochsberg investigates current upheavals from the perspective of economic history. He believes a return to the circulatory nature of the economy is playing out after a break of two centuries corresponding to the industrialization of the world during which the productive model prevailed. The circular flow model of the intangible economy, its financial and commercial aspects, its permanent quest for accelerated flows of assets and cash would thus be no more than a return to the roots, the reconciliation of the economy and its concept. Michel Henochsberg was an economist, PhD in Economics and Sociology.
