IMO the boundary between the household and the larger informal/social<br>
economy is very permeable. The nuclear family household is relatively<br>
recent and artificial, and to a considerable extent encouraged by 20th<br>
century capitalism's promotion of social atomization which reduced the<br>
household to the smallest possible size which would still socialize<br>
the costs of reproducing labor-power and the culture of obedience<br>
without providing a potential base for cost-, income- and risk-pooling<br>
which might increase the bargaining power of labor. It's quite likely<br>
that as total labor hours decline and precarity increases, we'll see a<br>
lot more not only of multi-generational houses but of multi-family<br>
cohousing, micro-villages and the like that internalize an increasing<br>
share of direct production for use.<br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Check out the Commons Transition Plan here at: <a href="http://commonstransition.org" target="_blank">http://commonstransition.org</a>  </div><div><br></div>P2P Foundation: <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net" target="_blank">http://p2pfoundation.net</a>  - <a href="http://blog.p2pfoundation.net" target="_blank">http://blog.p2pfoundation.net</a> <br><br><a href="http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation" target="_blank"></a>Updates: <a href="http://twitter.com/mbauwens" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/mbauwens</a>; <a href="http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens</a><br><br>#82 on the (En)Rich list: <a href="http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/" target="_blank">http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/</a> <br></div></div></div></div>
