Designing the Credit Commons: Autonomist Cooperative Direct Credit Clearing

The under perfoming state in which the global monetary system finds itself today invites to seek for  more viable alternatives to perpetual repayment of coumpounded interest-bearing debt.  The Credit Commons in the form of re-appropriation of the means of  production / creation of money are the natural evolution to a post-capitalist economic system, and society. The goal is to... Read More

Our Future, Our Money: the Design of Currency Systems

“The only way to learn is by doing. [The point is] to learn in order to realize goals that were previously considered as unimaginable”. Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri. Capitalism is ontologically (and almost economically) dead, thus we do not need the kind of transitory revolutions that characterized the relation of opposition between those who produce real value... Read More

The Solution offered by the Analogy with Process Ecology: CCCs – Community and Complementary Currencies

In the money creation process, the monopoly of a monoculture of national currencies frames a system, which is constitutively characterized by a significantly fragile structure. The eventual focus on the efficiency of the system in processing higher and higher volumes of national currencies toward necessary growth for increasing the size of total global trade has meant the total... Read More

The Analogy with Process Ecology applied to Monetary Economics

Indeed, by the endorsement of newtonian physical determinism, industrial society stood on the... Read More

Process Ecology: the lesson from Nature for assessing the Monetary System

Orthodox monetary economics impels a conception of modern bank money, which cogently shape – and adversely influence – the performance of the conventional monetary system. However, there is room for arguing in favor of solutions. “We now have scientific evidence that a structural fault is indeed involved in generating financial crashes”. – Bernard Lietaer   In... Read More

Ecology of Money

People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it. – Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen   An ‘ecology of money’ seeks the careful management of the conventional monetary system in a sustainable way both by mimicking natural ecosystems’ structure and by adding new currencies through tailor-made discursive and textual practices:... Read More

Post-Modern Monetary Economics

A rhizome does not begin or end, it is always in the middle, among the things, inter-esse, intermezzo. The tree is an affiliation, a rhizome is an alliance, just alliance. The tree imposes the verb <<being>>, but the rhizome has as a texture the conjunction <<and… and… and…>>.   Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari – Mille Plateaux Mille... Read More

The Relation between Money and Language

It is necessary for every monetary reformer to be aware of this parallelism: language is peculiar of a community which shares, or better, agrees upon the same linguistic habits as well as, according to Lietaer (2001), money as an agreement is, “valid only within a given community. Some currencies are operational only among a small group of friends (e. g. tokens used in card games),... Read More
