hi dante, as you probably know, I explore this issue here, http://p2pfoundation.net/Category:Peerproperty I have a pluralistic preference for this, i.e. I think a multitude of private and common property forms should exist but given the p2p dynamic in immaterial sharing, my own preference goes to some form of distributism, i.e. each individual has a share of productive resources (let's say a citizen share), which he can contribute to material productive/provisioning activities, but also, crucially, take away, i.e. the equivalent of forking, Michel On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 10:02 PM, Dante-Gabryell Monson < [email protected]> wrote:
What does p2p "property", "governance" and "production" most relate to , in comparison to other ( historic ) movements ? And what may people related to the p2pfoundation be supporting ?
*Do we have access to a chart which compares each of these ?*
And what "Laws" ( or absence of Laws ? ) would such p2p approaches support ?
A limit to the concentration of personal wealth ? ( or on any wealth at all, including businesses ? ) No moral person for corporations or any business entities ?
Such limits leading to the sale of property, maintaining prices lower and hindering any artificial scarcity on land and resources ?
///
Ownership of ones own basic means of production, combined with cooperatively owned property and means of production ? Distributism combined with Cooperative approaches ? ( see links below )
- How would this compare to Anarcho Syndicalist forms of governance, production and property ( absence of private property ? ). - Or with Libertarian approaches ( in the US sense ). Differing from Libertarian approaches by Putting a ( moral ? ) limit to private accumulation ? - feel free to correct based on your understanding of Libertarianism - ( as in Distributism ? see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributism#Anti-trust_legislation ) - How would it also differentiate with Technocrats and the Technocratic Movement ( and/or the Venus Project and the Zeitgeist Movement ).

Under such a system, most people would be able to earn a living without having to rely on the use of the property<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_property> of others to do so. Examples of people earning a living in this way would be farmers who own their own land and related machinery, plumbers who own their own tools, software developers who own their own computer, etc.
*The "cooperative" approach advances beyond this perspective to recognise that such property and equipment may be "co-owned" by local communities larger than a family, e.g., partners in a business.* * * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributism#Economic_theory
