Towards an Economy of Mutual Coordination: the Role of Crypto Infrastructures in Fourth Generation Civilizations

Michel Bauwens, the founder of the P2P Foundation and a resident in Chiang Mai, will give an introduction to the new role of peer to peer and commons dynamics in our present historical moment, and how these new capacities for translocal coordination change the conditions for civilization. The insights come from 15 years of studying mutual coordination technologies and a study of civilizational history and previous historical transitions, including insights in various observed cycles that partially determine human realities. For example, is there any analogy with the advent of writing and a writing elite, and the advent of coding and a developer class. Can crypto play a role in restoring ecological and social balance in a world affected by multiple crises ? @https://4thgenerationcivilization.substack.com/p/towards-a-fourth-generation-civilization
