= an initiative to share insight around non-market, non-state based mutual coordination in production and economics

Alternative Name: Cybernetic Economics

Discussion

Name of the Group

1. David Potocnik:

"My original intention was to form a study group & redevelopment project on the ashes of the Cybersyn project.

Perhaps the name Cybernetic economics would be more fitting.

In this context, I'm looking fwd to seeing what you mean with "Mutual Coordination Economics" and "an initiative to share insight around non-market, non-state based mutual coordination in production and economics"

As far as this I personally

  • agree with the non-market
  • would not limit to non-state
  • emphasis on distribution guiding production


2. Michel Bauwens:

I have no objection to changing the name.

My own idea is: what pricing is to the market and planning is to the bureaucratic state, mutual coordination is to economics based on open and shared commons.
