What do we do now that failing neoliberalism no longer even pretends to offer a better life? Resisting the system, without offering an alternative, is no longer sufficient. Part of the answer is to construct infrastructures that allow the common creation of value, but that embed new social values in the technology itself. This is in fact happening on a global basis as the technologies for sharing knowledge, software and designs, are merging with more distributed machinery and mission-oriented organizational forms, as well as new forms of human awareness that together offer a promise of integrated social change.

Speaker: Michel Bauwens, founder of the P2P Foundation.
