The P2P Mode of Production

By Grupo Cooperativo de Las Indias

This has thrown whole sectors of the economy into crisis. The answer to the crisis is understanding that knowledge is the new secret to success -- not secretive, proprietary knowledge, but knowledge that is shared openly in the commons.
