I wrote this for the CoordiNations workshop which starts tomorrow: https://t.co/8VZBIOdbQG Excerpt: "CoordiNations: This brings us to the concept of CoordiNations, as pioneered by Primavera de Filippi et al. While the concept of Network States by Balaji Srivanasan has strong libertarian and venture-capitalist undertones, the CoordiNations offers a broader canvass to understand the current evolution, which is not dominated by private city projects, but by a wide variety of cosmo-local collaborations. Following the pioneering work of Tiberius Brastaviceanu et al. on creating ‘Fourth Sector’ forms of collaboration, in which a networked commons becomes the meta-organizational structure of both the older 3 forms (state, private, non-profit) and of distributed productive associationism, different attempts are underway to finance the deployment of these new networks: <the “fourth sector”: a hybrid of the state, the market, and the nonprofit sector – including foundations and NGOs – all interacting in a system of open cooperation and operated by a network of peer-to-peer nodes. This network’s mission is to organize our public goods and our commons, using systems of cooperation and modularity that are interoperable between all these entities.> One recent example is the proposal by Hugo Mathecowitsch, which proposes an appropriate financial system, based on a new type of agent with alternative sovereignties: <We are currently living in a system where economic flows are organized by the State or by private companies. We wish to establish sovereign bonds but for alternative types of sovereignties, such as consensual communities that establish their own nation and social contract. We seek to capitalize on the social capital, NFTs, real assets, and even GDP of these communities, using tokenization to finance these companies.> (ibid) So we believe this is the frontier today: a synthesis of local but interconnected regenerative production initiatives, but with a digital identity, associated with new forms of recognized non-territorial sovereignty, that can initiate flows of ‘capital for the commons’, and ‘reverse cooptation’ of the geographic-capital system (the Capital-State-Nation system identified by Kojin Karatani). The challenge of the new ‘fourth civilizational’ order, based on ‘fourth sector’ organizational models, is the new synthesis between geography and the trans-local, under the cosmo-local conditions of the meta-crisis, that can be tools for the emergence of a new type of planetary commons, going beyond the current ‘global commons’ based on inter-state cooperation."
