Building The Social Economy

On November 4, 2009

The following summary from Hannah Del Porto does a great job in identifying the State of the Art in Building The Social Economy. Such “Thought Infrastructure” is essential to what will evolve into the next economic paradigm. For years, we have specified an Innovation Economy Built on Social Media platform. The thesis is published Here.

The key, we believe, is for the Social Financial System to emulate the critical components of the Monetary Financial Systems that support capitalization. Hence, “Social Capitalism” will emerge as a replacement for both Socialism and Capitalism. We are deeply excited in observing this integration of knowledge assets

Thanks Hannah!!!

A Local Currency Primer-Comfort Dollars

In General Information

Douglas Rushkoff has an interesting post, indirectly on how local currency can spur social capital. As more corporate and governmental institutions fail to meet the needs of society, people will need a currency that they can trade among each other. If the dollar fails, the need will be dire.

The difficulties that will ultimately limit such enterprise is the inability to capitalize and securitize a social currency. Conversational Currency solves this problem by demonstrating how social media, if organized correctly, can simulate many of the functions of corporations and government. As such, people will ultimately trade the currency they trust most.

I like Douglas Rushkoff’s work. I suppose the ultimate test of concept would be if he finds this post and contacts us to integrate The Ingenesist Project and Conversational Currency into his thought leadership. Thanks Douglas!!
