| | The most significant feature of capitalism, in the Marxist analysis, is the fact that the ruling class monopolizes the means of protection, thus of property law enforcement, which keeps the financial capital valuable and convertible into the means of production (all other forms of capital). | | | This analysis avoids however the problem of individual capital or "enterprise" or "ingenuity", and how choices to act or not act work in the large to define roles or rules. | | | This includes factories, machines, tools and materials, along with both infrastructural capital and natural capital, the classical factors of production minus financial capital and minus human capital or labor. |

| | Instructional capital - Free Encyclopedia |
| | However, in macro-economics, instructional capital is usually considered part of human capital and not differentiated from individual capital or social capital assets. | | | The term seemingly originated in post-secondary school administration where budgets were forced to differentiate between "instructional" and "non-instructional" or "infrastructural capital". | | | However that term does not describe a capital asset, as "intellect" is not as specific or actionable a concept as "instruction". |

| | Financial capital |
| | When in forms other than money, financial capital may be traded on bond markets or reinsurance markets with varying degrees of trust in the social capital (not just credits) of bond-issuers, insurers, and others who issue and trade in financial instruments. | | | Socialism, capitalism, feudalism, anarchism, other civic theories take markedly different views of the role of financial capital in social life, and propose various political restrictions to deal with that. | | | In effect, the means of money supply and other regulations on financial capital represent the economic sense of the value system of the society itself, as they determine the allocation of labor in that society. |

| | Venture capital |
| | Most venture capital funds have a fixed life of ten years—this model was pioneered by some of the most successful funds in Silicon Valley through the 1980s to invest in technological trends broadly but only during their period of ascendance, to cut exposure to management and marketing risks of any individual firm or its product. | | | A venture capital fund is a pooled investment vehicle (often a partnership) that primarily invests the financial capital of third-party investors in enterprises that are too risky for the standard capital markets or bank loans. | | | Investments by a venture capital fund can take the form of either equity participation or a combination of equity participation and debt obligation—often with convertible debt instruments that become equity if a certain level of risk is exceeded. |

| | It is often used interchangeably with municipal infrastructure, e.g. | | | Opponents of internal improvement programs argue that such projects should be undertaken by the private sector, and not the public sector. | | | Advocates of American System Economics point out that such federal investments in infrastructure are counter-inflationary, because they increase the overall productive power of the economy, in contrast to federal investments that prop up speculative bubbles, as was the trend in the 1990s. |

| | Human resources - WebArticles.com |
| | Advocating the central role of "human resources" or human capital in enterprises and societies has been a traditional role of socialist parties, who claim that value is primarily created by their activity, and accordingly justify a larger claim of profits or relief from these enterprises or societies. | | | A contrary view, common to capitalist parties, is that it is the infrastructural capital and (what they call) intellectual capital owned and fused by "management" that provides most value in financial capital terms. | | | An important controversy regarding labor mobility illustrates the broader philosophical issue with usage of the phrase "human resources": governments of developing nations often regard developed nations that encourage immigration or "guest workers" as appropriating human capital that is rightfully part of the developing nation and required to further its growth as a civilization. |

| | OpenPolitics.ca : social capital |
| | Social capital intersects with the individual capital that dies with the individual, since some of the interpersonal ties are specific to the person and their body. | | | This becomes a capital asset when someone relies on such ties to do things that would otherwise require money or direct physical ontrol of other assets. | | | Today social capital is generally regarded as one of several economic intangibles, "relating largely to interpersonal networks. |

| | factors of production: Information From Answers.com |
| | The classical relationship of financial capital and infrastructural capital is still recognized as central, but there is a wider debate on means of production and various means of protection, or "property rights", to secure their reliable use. | | | Capital goods - human-made goods (or means of production) which are used in the production of other goods. | | | However, this seems to be a form of labor or "human capital." When differentiated, the payment for this factor of production is called profit. |

| | The lower-tier would be reserved exclusively to channel the "magic" of future capital credit in ways that systematically transform wage-earners into an ever-widening base of capital owners, or to save farmers and entrepreneurs from losing their farms and businesses because of today's high interest rates. | | | Ideally, the tax system would avoid the double tax on corporate profits, so that the capital credit for workers could be repaid with future dividends. | | | A properly designed loan to an ESOP is more secure than a straight loan to the company because, in addition to normal security on loan repayment, the workers have a stake in the outcome and there are special tax advantages for all parties. |

| | Futurist - SourceWatch |
| | While almost all futurists would deny that there is such a thing as futurism, there clearly is: it is the belief that there is value in predicting the future, and spending one's own individual capital (free time) in doing so. | | | This in turn facilitates planned obsolescence and a whole waste economy simply to guard or dispose of the toxic waste that such products consist of. | | | As evidenced by bizarre public investment decisions, over-reliance on predictions can advise investment in weapon or infrastructural capital that is useless or obsolete on construction, e.g. |

| | Real property - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Because real property is essential for industry or other activity requiring a lot of fixed physical capital, economics is very concerned with real property and rules regarding its valuation and disposition, and obligations accrueing to its owners. | | | In economic terms, real property consists of some natural capital (or land, one of the factors of production especially in agriculture), and infrastructural capital (the buildings, water and power lines, and other improvements necessary to make real property useful for some human purpose). | | | Other fixed physical assets, indistinguishable economically from infrastructure, such as machines, may be stored on real property and may require natural or infrastructural attributes (such as running water for a turbine or an isolated location to allow loud noise emissions) hard to duplicate even nearby. |
