Intellectual capital in the structure of global economy

The article explores the essence of intellectual capital in a post-industrial knowledge economy. Methodological identification of key concepts — intelligence, intellectual work, intellectual activity, intellectual product, intellectual property, intellectual resource, intellectual potential, intellectual capital — is carried out. The phenomenon of global intellectualization of economic development is investigated. The objective trends of the evolution of human capital into intellectual are shown. The place of intellectual property in the institutional environment of the knowledge economy is determined. An eclectic model characterizing the interconnection of human, social, network, and intellectual capitals is proposed; methods for quantifying the latter are presented. The defining role of the education sector in a post-industrial society is confirmed, the prerequisites and trends in the formation of the global educational services market are identified and its structural features are evaluated. The modern dilemmas of the development of science and education are identified and their multi-criteria evaluation is carried out. A model of the intellectualization of global economic development based on the methodological basis of the “triple helix” of Henry Itszkowitz is substantiated, in which universities, government and business on the one hand, interact with open science, education and innovation on the other. The transformation of universities as public institutions from traditional to research and entrepreneurial models is investigated. The global model of intellectualization of economic development based on open science, education, innovations is grounded. Their integrative role in the intellectual economy is illustrated.
