 *1. This Sunday, May 8th, Central Hotel, Dublin (afternoon and evening
events)*

*An Introduction to peer-to-peer*

Wikipedia and Linux are impressive examples of intellectual labour created
on and through the internet but they don't fit conventional economic theory
as the people who developed and refined them did not charge for their work
and there is no charge for their use. No  corporation organised their
creation and claimed ownership rights.  Are these examples of a new type of
economy which has a lot further to go? Will open source product design
underpin a new type of creative economy in which some things will be
available in abundance mostly for free? Are we witnessing the birth of a
digital commons where intellectual property rights like copyright and
patents are standing in the way of human progress?  Theorist Michel Bauwens
and the P2P foundation believes so. In his view we are entering an economic
era as profoundly different as feudalism was from the Roman Empire, and
industrial capitalism was from feudalism. But is the future he envisa ges
compati ble with the ecological limits that humanity is encountering in
almost every field?
