[OSList] Fwd: Re: Fw: Supporting an ingenious idea: an ongoing series of wisdom councils as a TV series in the US

Fri Nov 15 14:29:47 PST 2013

Raffi asked me to repost his note to the list that I found in my spam 
folder but not in my filter for notes from our list.
In case you all got it already... use the delete thing.
Cheers from Berlin on my way to the Third European Open Space Learning 
Exchange in Utrecht which happens to take place simultaneously to the 
stuff that the Basques do in Spain, invited by Eleder!

"When I realized that the dissolution of community comes from the
monetization of functions that were once part of the gift network, I
could at first see no other way to recover community that to abandon the
money economy and, by extension, the economic and industrial system of
mass production. i see no other way to re-establish community than to
resume doing things "the hard way" again: doing things without machines.
If community dies when strangers make all the things we need, then to
restore it, I thought, we must return to local, and necessarily
lower-tech, production- production not requiring a global division of
labor.
