There is broad consensus across the political spectrum in the US
that monopolistic corporations - particularly Big Tech companies --
have grown too powerful, and that we need to revive antitrust to
take on the 'curse of bigness.' But both the diagnosis and the cure
are rooted in an outdated understanding of how the American economy
is organized. Information and communication technologies have
fundamentally altered the markets for capital, labor, supplies, and
distribution in ways that undermine the basic categories we use to
understand the economy. Nationality, industry, firm, size,
employee, and other fundamental terms are increasingly detached
from the operations of the economy. If we want to understand and
tame the new sources of economic power, we need a new diagnosis and
a new set of tools.
