Knowledge is growth?
A number of authors Corsani,
Moulier, Canals, claim that
So far money was not growth
but credit was it
But knowledge is difficult to be converted into money
itself, because one can do many copies out of it and
thus the unit of change tends to zero

Example 1 – CENTS for Solving
some Science Problems
misuse of peer review for selection
of papers
low vitality congresses
academic path pressures
need of more, and more and more,
breakthrough ideas
growing, growing, growing

Appraisal of Science
how much is worth a piece of
knowledge, a craft, or a
paper?
ask pals for help
they, in fact, peer review it…
more peer-review than ever!
- 14. EASY Innova UdG © Josep Lluis de la Rosa and Teresa Bosch10/05/2013 14
Open Questions
how to encourage accomplished
scientist to mentor younger and new
ideas
It is about transfer of [scientific] wealth
How to create contracts, loans and
mentoring
dynamization: taxes?
inflation control
- 15. EASY Innova UdG © Josep Lluis de la Rosa and Teresa Bosch10/05/2013 15
Open Questions
test citation auctions in real congresses and
journals
make agreements to create the (citations) currency
so far…
some people think it is a crazy idea
others think it will surely work but introduce
capitalism to knowledge, what is very bad!
- 16. EASY Innova UdG © Josep Lluis de la Rosa and Teresa Bosch10/05/2013 16
Example 2 – COUNTS
Knowledge is used for accurate marketing
campaigns
Some companies sell that knowledge
Agents are able to data
mine the knowledge

COUNTS is another type of

Still a crazy idea?

Key ideas
[CC is all about taking advantage
of hidden community assets]
[Citations and auctions may impulse a paradigm
shift in Science]
[Referrals and counts may impulse a
paradigm shift in marketing
[Wits may result in a paradigm shift in Society]
