Book of the Day: Wikipedia and the Politics of Openness | P2P Foundation

Book of the Day: Wikipedia and the Politics of Openness | P2P Foundation | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

“Nathaniel Tkacz … examines the entire Wikipedia project in the way that we as academics examine a Wikipedia article: questioning at every stage, digging deeper, looking through the project to its source, so as to apprehend its nature and come to a better understanding. Given the role and prominence of Wikipedia and those behind it, and how it has come to exemplify the internet itself, this is a critically important exercise – and Wikipedia and the Politics of Openness is an important book.

Book of the Day: With Liberty and Dividends for All | P2P Foundation

Book of the Day: With Liberty and Dividends for All | P2P Foundation | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

Everybody talks a lot about economic inequality, but there don’t seem to be many credible proposals out there, let alone ones that have political legs.  French economist Thomas Piketty documented the deep structural nature of inequality in Capital in the 21st Century, but the best solution he could come up with was a global wealth tax.  Good luck with that!

Book of the Day: On Catholics and Software | P2P Foundation

Book of the Day: On Catholics and Software | P2P Foundation | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it
“This ebook collects, all in one place, my main writings from 2005 to 2013 on a specific topic: //how Catholics should choose and use software, digital standards and other digital technologies//. Please note that, while I usually write “Catholics” here, I believe that most of this ebook applies to all other Christians, and to many other religions too. As far as I know, there was almost nothing in this field when I started, and the situation today is almost the same.
