La pulsation des communs
Dans cet l'entretien Michel Bauwens insiste sur les espoirs qu'il continue à nourrir d'une transformation sociale radicale par la voie du pair-à-pair. Il insiste sur la façon dont certaines licences libres appelées licences à réciprocité renforcée ( Copyfair plutôt que Copyright ) rendent possible la mise en commun, au niveau mondial, de connaissances produites de façon collaborative via des plateformes appelées Wiki. Ce savoir produit en commun …
Les nouvelles infrastructures civiques: Au cœur d’une stratégie de transformation
Partant de son travail très riche autour de la théorie du pair-à-pair, notamment au sein de la Fondation P2P, comme susceptible d'apporter des réponses aux « failles » du système capitalisme - dommages environnementaux, injustices sociales ou encore dégradations des relations sociales -, Michel Bauwens se propose de considérer notre entrée dans « une nouvelle phase de mutualisation des communs ». Une phase de « cosmo-localisation » qui donne l'op…
The Seeds of The Commons: Peer-to-Peer Alternatives for Planetary Survival and Justice
Communs et réseaux informatiques: Vers une nouvelle construction identitaire
Fondateur de la P2P Foundation, un observatoire de la réémergence des communs 1 au travers des réseaux de pair à pair et de leurs dynamiques transformatrices, Michel Bauwens aborde ici la question de ce que ces dynamiques provoquent quant à la construction identitaire. Dans un contexte politique de montée en puissance de conflits et mouvements « identitaires », il nous appelle à faire face aux risques de ce « collectivisme identitaire » et prône …
Peer to Peer
Not since Marx identified the manufacturing plants of Manchester as the blueprint for the new capitalist society has there been a more profound transformation of the fundamentals of our social life. As capitalism faces a series of structural crises, a new social, political and economic dynamic is emerging: peer to peer. What is peer to peer? Why is it essential for building a commons-centric future? How could this happen? These are the questions …

Re-imagining the left through an ecology of the commons: Towards a post-capitalist commons transition
Our main hypothesis in this paper is that in the current conjuncture, we are moving towards a ‘dominance’ of a ‘commons’ format for societal development. The commons format assumes a ‘third’ mode of development that indicates civil society and community as critical initiators and guardians of common value. The emerging commons model should be distinguished from both the regulation of capitalism by social-democracy, and state-centric Soviet types …
The ecosystem of commons-based peer production and its transformative dynamics
This essay discusses peer-to-peer social dynamics and the relevant technological infrastructures that enable new modes of production. Commons-based peer production is presented as an alternative to the profit-driven peer-to-peer production models of the digital economy. The latter models utilize the peer-to-peer dynamics to harness social creativity, collaboration and information sharing. The created value is then captured and valorized towards p…
Peer‐to‐Peer
For technologically oriented people, peer‐to‐peer (P2P) refers to a distributed form of networking computers, without passing through centralized servers, for different kinds of cooperative endeavors, such as file sharing and music distribution. However, this interpretation is arguably limited in scope. From a broader perspective, P2P can be viewed as a template of human relationships which is springing up throughout the various social fields and…

Le mode de production « entre pairs » comme alternative au mode capitaliste
Changer le système, pas le climat » est le slogan de la société civile qui espère un accord lors de la COP21 de Paris. Nous ne pouvons pas sauver le climat sans abandonner notre système productiviste et ce point n'est pas à l'ordre du jour de la négociation. Michel Bauwens esquisse ce que pourrait être ce nouveau mode de production alternatif
Network Society and Future Scenarios for a Collaborative Economy
This book builds on the idea that peer-to-peer infrastructures are gradually becoming the general conditions of work, economy, and society. Using a four-scenario approach, the authors seek to simplify
From the Communism of Capital to Capital for the Commons: Towards an Open Co-operativism
Two prominent social progressive movements are faced with a few contradictions and a paradox. On the one side, we have a re-emergence of the co-operative movement and worker-owned enterprises which suffer from certain structural weaknesses. On the other, we have an emergent field of open and Commons-oriented peer production initiatives which create common pools of knowledge for the whole of humanity, but are dominated by start-ups and large multi…
Quelles stratégies politiques de transition pour la généralisation de l'économie contributive
L'économie contributive, basée sur la production entre pairs, est aujourd'hui un modèle hybride du fait de son imbrication avec le capitalisme, dont dépend la reproduction sociale des contributeurs. Pour s'affranchir de cette dépendance et aller vers une autonomie de l'économie contributive, M. Bauwens propose plusieurs pistes qui portent sur le mode de production et une convergence avec le monde de la coopération, mais aussi sur l'organisation p…

La crise de l'immatériel, la production entre pairs (P2P) et l'économie éthique à venir
Class and capital in peer production
The aim of this paper is to make the case that peer production offers a unique chance to transcend capitalism, and that peer-to-peer movements represent the succession of industrial-society based socialisms. The paper describes the salient characteristics of peer production before going on to explore whether it is 'transcendent' or 'immanent' to the market system, concluding that it is both in that it creates a new form of capitalism and also poi…

Spirituality and technology: Exploring the relationship
This essay first looks at some of the social and cultural changes associated with the notion of a Digital Revolution, the result of the growth of the Internet and the emergence of 'cyberspace'. It then examines some basic 'spiritual' attitudes and how various debates within and between different schools of thought are changing attitudes about technology. Technology can be seen both as a degenerate practice and/or as a means to bring mankind to a …
