But the 'how' of doing it is as important as doing it, and specifically, we need to move from extractive forms of investment and capture, to generative forms that co-create common goods with the user communities. This is hardly the case with the dominant forces in the often mis-named sharing economy, which is often just about renting and selling. Facebook for example does not share any of its profits with the user communities that creates its value, the uber and airbnb's are actively undermining all social protection and solidarity mechanisms that took 200 years to build, and much crowdsourcing is about pitting individual workers against each other, and bringing down wages and income, rather than stimulating cooperation. So we must more actively look for authentic sharing practices and co-generative forms of mutualization, which we can find in sources like Shareable, the Sustainable Economies Law Center and observatories like the P2P Foundation."</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="h5"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><span><font color="#888888"><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div><div dir="ltr"><div><a href="http://www.twitter.com/sethporges" target="_blank">http://www.twitter.com/sethporges</a></div><div><br></div></div></div>
