ich schrieb drüber:

“This is the first blueprint ever of community supported manufacturing
that I seriously encountered – and it is a bomb!

Many synapses clicked in my head. I saw the relations with
Frithjof Bergmanns New Work concept – but in an entirely
different new light – and I saw the immediate relevance
to connect with Mohammad Yunus social enterprise concept.
And I suddenly saw the possibility to solve the problem
how p2p production rises to the level of serious manufacturing
world-class products.

A social entreprise is an enterprise that works at zero profit,
re-investing possible gains or rather bringing down the market
price to the cost price. It has no profit motive, this is where
the need for a mission or task comes in to fill the void.

Such an enterprise is not a corporation, but is based on a
constitution, on democratic control of its shareholders which
equal users and stakeholders in absence of dividends on shares.

No interests or license fees to pay. With special licenses community
supported manufacturing plants could be privileged against
for-profit plants. The could keep workers rights alive AND deliver
superior products, supported by the brainpower of global developer
communities. New Work would NOT ONLY work in decentralized
production cafes, but also in large industrial plants – and the two
worlds would be intrinsically linked.

Recently I challenged Frithjof Bergmann for his intention to create
“New Work Enterprises” as a commercial venture. But here is
a valid alternative: a community share system to build
up large operations.

I began to toss the thought in my head what would be the
economic development of such a share without dividends;
that it could absorb extra savings and still provide some
economic security within the monetary system because it
could still hold some value and hence be sold on need.

A p2p stock exchange would be a living possibility. Value
would be determined by community need and identification with
the product. Stockholding could mean some privileges,
but not the dirty ones.

So I follow Marcins proposal with conviction.”

Samuel Rose hat den Ball dieser etwas ins Unreine gedachten Gedanken in openmanufacturing gleich aufgenommen und kommentiert:

“The types of commons that are emerging when people pool time, knowledge, data, resources, etc are more valuable than the shares of a typical company stock, in my estimation. Because, those commons are more flexible, adaptable, and sustainable over time. They are far less subject to market forces, and can be leveraged to solve many of the basic subsistence problems of people around the world.”

Und zu meiner spontanen Idee einer “P2P AG” mit dividendenlosen Anteilscheinen, die uns vielleicht ermöglichen, so manchen Laden auszukaufen, und ihm mit Keimformcharakter sogar noch mal als ökonomischen Wert wieder ins Rennen zu bringen, stellt er eine interessante Verbindung her:

I think this is where we can borrow from CA Fitts’s model to some extent, making “A” shares, and “B” shares, for instance. “A” shares going to those who have a vested stake in a commons, giving them a vote in the decision making processes. “B” shares going to people not “local” to the system, but who want to invest in some way, because they have a looser affiliation/affinty/need and can benefit from and contribute to the commons sustainably, but have a smaller stake in the commons. They would have a “dividend” that would be limited to whatever the “B” share contract gives them.

Ein Blick in dieses Konzept lohnt sich also für alle die jetzt, wo sich die Dinge immens krisenhaft beschleunigen, wissen wollen wie es in dieser Situation wirklich richtig weitergehen könnte.

benni hat in seinem Kommentar natürlich Recht, dass das, was drüben bei Factor E Farm passiert, nur teilweise Peer-Ökonomie ist, weil nur der Entwurfprozess wirklich für alle offen ist. Aber hier ……
