Fwd - How Peer to Peer Communities will change the World – Interview with Michel Bauwens, July 26, 2011
A great introduction to Michel and P2P. I can see me referring to this often in future when I'm trying to give credibility and context to some of my "views of reality" regarding life in the 21st century.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~How Peer to Peer Communities will change the World – Interview with Michel Bauwens, P2P Foundation founder.
(snip) P2P processes both transform, but also adapt, to the existing society: this synthesis is perhaps the only way out of the historical problems humanity is facing these days. Open, equal and participatory platforms and paradigms, able to put people in direct contact with each other, shown tremendous potential during recent years: with the mission to help other p2p alternatives to emerge and consolidate, the “Foundation for P2P alternatives” was founded by Michel Bauwens years ago.
Michel is an amazing speaker, researcher, analyst and writer: the very perfect person to help us investigate the impacts that these changes, those summarized in this piece today, will hopefully have on the world to come.
