(Comrades, the discussion will begin at 12:00 on Saturday. Below are outline and notes:) The Economic Workings of a New Society The session would consist of a no more than 10-15 minute overview of the below necessary workings of all societies to be followed by discussions and questions regarding the economic workings of this capitalist society, and how the new societythat we all want and needmight solve the problems left with us as a consequence of the demise of capitalism. And how we might chart new ways, new thinkings, new manners of relationships amongst ourselves. As example, the circuits of RAC-LAs production will be offered as the transitional model that it is. Planning, Working, Living and Recreating Our New Lives 1st Circuit Planning and Allocation of the Factors of Production / \ 4th Circuit 2nd Circuit Consumption Production | \ / | 3rd Circuit | Distribution of the products | A. Productive (Social) Consumption-wherein the material factors of the next production cycle are stored B. Final User (Individual) Consumption-wherein societys members reproduce and improve themselves Circuit 1-social decision-making as to what is to be produced and how Circuit 2-where the products are made and/or improved through worker freedom Circuit 3-where in the output is allocated to societys members according to its principles. Circuit 4A-wherein capital goods are stored awaiting the decisions made in Circuit 1 (with the mark indicating that this is a new Circuit 1; and, Circuit 4B-where the goods allocated to the members are consumed thus replacing the energy and efforts expended in the other circuits, as well as providing additional benefits above that necessary for replacement. How are these things How could they be differently? How does RAC-LA done under capitalism? do these things? 1. 1. 1. 2. 2. 2. 3. 3. 3. 4A. 4A. 4A. 4B. 4B. 4B. It is hoped that committees would result from this conference formed so as to more deeply explore the separate problems identified and necessary to be solved; and fashion ideas for changes in the ways and manners that things are done; and be able to present these ideas in mannersand develop working modelswhich contribute to promoting a local- all the way to world-wide-dialogue on these problems in which all can be heard. johnaim...@earthlink.net RAC-LA ----- Original Message ----- From: Sara Ramirez Galindo To: anarchist bookfair ; Jennifer Garcia ; Robin Garcia Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2011 9:33 PM Subject: [labookfair-discussion] notes!
