Robert Brenner and Dylan Riley have characterized the post-1990 economy ofUnited States as political capitalism, where raw 'political power' rather than 'productive investment' is the "key determinant ofrate of return".[9]
Filippa Chatzistavrou broadens the concept of political capitalism applied in thedigital age by pushing further the idea of states and high tech markets being co-constitutive in order to include not onlyrent seeking, property rights' issues and surplus extraction mechanisms, but also models ofgovernance.[10]
