[P2P-F] [NetworkedLabour] Robin Murray on Post-Post-Fordism

[Anna Harris]

Thank you for this Peter. Extremely interesting analysis of past and future economic trends. In passing it answers Orsan's point about positive and hope being in the 'non-automatable part of life and human'.
'They always looked to see if knowledge could be codified, yet knew that you had to have tacit knowledge to apply and customise the codification. That tacit knowledge might itself be codified. but that too needs further tacit knowledge. and so on. It was a constant movement of codification plus the tacit, never the eradication of the tacit. The moment you lose the tacit, living labour, the codification atrophies.' (p13)

In other words the two functions are not opposed to each other, but are complementary. The key is whether they are used to exploit by extracting a profit, or to benefit society.
