[OSList] Research OST

[Harold Shinsato via OSList]

Hi Hege,

I'm in correspondence with professor Emma Bell who is currently 
researching Open Space in the context of the "Unconference" movement, 
and she and her associate in the U.K. are doing some ongoing research in 
this area. I have an early copy of their research. I'll let you know if 
there is an update of when there will be something that can be shared 
more broadly.

One book that might be interesting for academic research into Open Space 
is the use of Game Theory to think about the value of circle processes. 
The book is called Ratual Ritual: Culture, Coordination, and Common 
Knowledge, by Michael Suk-Young Chwe who teaches game theory at the 
political science department of UCLA. (Thank you to Daniel Mezick for 
finding this book!)

Emma found that the research is limited for Open Space. But there is a 
non-trivial amount that has been compiled by the community in the past 
here: http://openspaceworld.org/wp2/explore/open-space-research/

     Regards,
     Harold
