A compelling explanation of how the law shapes the distribution of wealth
Capital is the defining feature of modern economies, yet most people have no idea where it actually comes from. What is it, exactly, that transforms mere wealth into an asset that automatically creates more wealth? The Code of Capital explains how capital is created behind closed doors in the offices of private attorneys, and why this little-known fact is one of the biggest reasons for the widening wealth gap between the holders of capital and everybody else.
In this revealing book, Katharina Pistor argues that the law selectively “codesâ€� certain assets, endowing them with the capacity to protect and produce private wealth. With the right legal coding, any object, claim, or idea can be turned into capitalâ€"and lawyers are the keepers of the code. Pistor describes how they pick and choose among different legal systems and legal devices for the ones that best serve their clients’ needs, and how techniques that were first perfected centuries ago to code landholdings as capital are being used today to code stocks, bonds, ideas, and even expectationsâ€"assets that exist only in law.
A powerful new way of thinking about one of the most pernicious problems of our time, The Code of Capital explores the different ways that debt, complex financial products, and other assets are coded to give financial advantage to their holders. This provocative book paints a troubling portrait of the pervasive global nature of the code, the people who shape it, and the governments that enforce it.
Katharina Pistor is the Edwin B. Parker Professor of Comparative Law and director of the Center on Global Legal Transformation at Columbia Law School. She is the coauthor of Law and Capitalism: What Corporate Crises Reveal about Legal Systems and Economic Development around the World and the coeditor of Governing Access to Essential Resources. She lives in New York City.
近乎读完,部分能容非常干燥,但也无法掩饰这本书的光彩。作者基本观点为:Capital is assets coded by law。资本的性质包括 - priority, convertibility, durability, universality。作者给出了大量实例以及历史来证明这些性质和观点,同时指出律师在资本世界的地位。每每读到一些和工作相关的实例,都超级兴奋且不禁想要膜拜!学习不止不止不止,还要努力努力努力!

评分法律可以将财产标记为资本,从而使得原本仅可以供人持有/使用的有形或无形的财产变成可以产生财富的资本。作者提出了资本的新定义:资本=财产+法律,认为法律在创造财富和不均上有着重大的作用。可是法律并不是凭空而来的,作者认为律师在财产转化为资本的过程中起了极大的作用,有资源去聘请律师的人可以在很大程度上左右法律使得自己的钱不断生钱。这就又回到了鸡生蛋蛋生鸡的问题上来。总的来说还是一个比较新奇的角度吧
