The paper > describes the salient characteristics of peer production before going on to > explore whether it is ‘transcendent’ or ‘immanent’ to the market system, > concluding that it is both in that it creates a new form of capitalism and > also points out how that new form might be overcome. Following a review of > the hybrid economic forms emerging today, I formulate the hypothesis that > peer production is actually a hyperproductive mode, forcing for-profit > entities to adapt to its characteristics, thereby further integrating it into > the existing political economy, but not without the transformative effects of > its market transcending aspects. After examining the possible expansion of > peer-production modalities to physical manufacturing, I also examine the > class aspects of commons and sharing-based platforms and hypothesise the > emergence of a new section of capital, netarchical capitalists, who enable > and empower participation, but also monetise it and attempt to control > it..floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan > > P2P Foundation: http://p2pfoundation.net - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net > > Updates: http://twitter.com/mbauwens; http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens > > #82 on the (En)Rich list: http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/ > _______________________________________________ > NetworkedLabour mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.contrast.org/mailman/listinfo/networkedlabour
