The value of resources is defined by them being scarce and unequally distributed. But when nearing an equilibrium state, new resources emerge through the synthesis of previously available ones. One can go as far as saying, and even claim there is a hierarchy of resources. Starting with bare natural resources which can be found in nature, to processed resources that are required to manufacture goods, to any form of manufactured goods self, to information that is required to manufacture and manage the production goods in the first place. Admittingly, as we all know, we live in the "information age", centered around the latter stage. But what resource will emerge and becomes most important after the information age?
