Schramm Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation William J. Baumol Berkley Center for Entrepreneurial Studies New York University The transformation of the American economy over the last twenty to thirty years has frequently been characterized as the rise of the service economy. In the conventional telling, the United States moved from being primarily an agricultural nation in the nineteenth century, to having an industrial and manufacturing econ- omy through much of the twentieth century, to finally becoming a service econ- omy at the outset of the twenty-first century. Services now account for approxi- mately 80 percent of economic activity, while agriculture has fallen to roughly one or two percent, with manufacturing making up the remainder. This narrative is alternately told in positive and negative light. Those with a sanguine outlook on the U.S. economy see this as an upward progression, moving more and more people off the farm and out of factories and into more fulfilling, Maslovian hierarchy-oriented jobs. Accordingly, we have finally reached the cusp of achieving the vision long ago laid down by John Maynard Keynes, in which everyone enjoys more fun, leisure, and altogether more pleasure (Keynes, 1930). More nostalgic and pessimistic observers interpret the transition to a service econ- omy as social and economic degeneration, an empty world in which we do little more than perform menial tasks and services for each other. To strengthen our na- tional character and chart a brighter future, we must once again become a manu- facturing-based economy—making things, in this dour view, is the sine qua non of economic promise. Neither of these narratives holds much truth. In the first case, it is inaccurate to suppose that there is some far-off utopia of leisure to which we are inexorably ad- vancing. The benefits of economic growth, to be sure, are real and substantial, but they are different from what is often presumed (or expected) to be the case. So we expect that a service economy brings increasing amounts of leisure—yet it turns out that people actually like to work, and thus the division of hours between work and leisure changes little. Likewise, nostalgia for a manufacturing economy is badly misinformed. Work today is generally safer and in many cases more cogni- tively-demanding than in the industrial economy of fifty or one hundred years ago. x Foreword We are not, contrary to semi-popular belief, a nation of burger-flippers and store- front greeters. And, such conflation of manufacturing and economic health is often based on the American experience in the immediate postwar decades—a time of rapid economic expansion, of course, but also a period during which nearly half of the American population was excluded from mainstream economic participation. In any case, even when manufacturing represented its highest historical share of economic output, it was matched by services—manufacturing has never accounted for a greater share of the economy than services. So what does a service economy mean? Economic models of growth have in recent years determined that knowledge, human capital (education and skills), and innovation now play a larger role in propelling the economy than they did in pre- vious eras. Yet these elements have always been important to economic growth to one degree or another—what’s different today is that the entire structure of the U.S. and world economies is changing. As one of us has written, “Ahistoric mod- els that do not distinguish one type of economic system from another are, to say the least, handicapped” (Baumol, 2002). Whereas the United States could once be characterized as a system of “bureau- cratic capitalism,” we now stand firmly within an era of “entrepreneurial capital- ism” (Baumol, Litan, & Schramm, 2007). As the name implies, the founding and growth of new firms, entrepreneurship, has become immensely more important to our society and economy than it once was. This transformation, moreover, is inti- mately bound up with the rising share of services in the economy and, more im- portantly, the changing character of services. And it is this change that the emerg- ing discipline of service science seeks to study and facilitate. We live not only in a world of services but also in a world of ever-expanding possibilities and networks of activities. Indeed, networks and entrepreneurship are perhaps the twin hall- marks of this new and highly innovative service economy. It is no longer accurate to think of our economy as solely defined by services— the array of innovations and business types is so vast as to defy any attempt at general categorization. As Jim Spohrer, the founding Director of IBM’s Service Research efforts which began at the Almaden Research Center and who is one of the godfathers of service science, points out, our economy and society today are dominated by complex networks of service systems—overlapping systems that ceaselessly interact and create value. If we persist in thinking in terms of a manu- facturing and services dichotomy and of which one we should have more or less, we will miss the changing nature of the economy and the urgent need for greater understanding of these service system networks. The increasing complexity and in- teractive capability of these networks mean we need to explore the expansive pos- sibilities for service innovation and integration across different types of service systems. Failure to understand can have deleterious consequences. Take the current recession and the global financial crisis that helped precipitate it: a common theme in the autopsy literature is that the global financial system suf- fered from a number of vulnerabilities that could have been prevented and, in some cases, were anticipated. A deeper understanding of the nature of service sys- tem networks may not have helped forestall the crisis, but could have lessened the
