世间万物都有开始和结束。我们已经可以看到,信息经济在几十年后也将结束,被新的经济所替代。打猎和采集经济延续了几十万年,而耕作经济统治了大约1万年,再后来是工业经济——18世纪60年代始于英国,20世纪50年代首先开始在美国解体。如今,我们正处于信息经济的中途,从开始到结束,它将持续75到80年,并将在21世纪的20年代末结束。那么,请为下一个经济——生物经济——做好准备。 Everything in the world begins and ends. We can already see that the information economy will also come to an end in a few decades and be replaced by a new economy. The hunting and gathering economy lasted for hundreds of thousands of years, while the farming economy ruled for about 10,000 years, then the industrial economy - which started in Britain in the 1860s and first began to disintegrate in the United States in the 1950s. Today we are halfway through the information economy, from start to finish, which will last 75 to 80 years and will end in the late 1920s. Well, be prepared for the next economy - the bioeconomy.
