Hi StefanS, Yuwei, all!
If we come to the relationship of peer production and a money based
society IMHO there are two options:
* Furthering the integration of peer production in the money based
system by calling for payment of peer production
* Furthering a peer economy by extending it and providing goods and
services by this economy more and more
I strongly believe that the first is some danger for peer production
while the second is a good step into a fundamental change.
If you get specific payment for peer production, then it is no longer peer production, this is not just 'some' danger, but actually fatal (though of course it can be free software as property format)
A macro-solution is the provision of a generalized nonconditional income which allows peer production to occur
Microsolution is companies hiring peer producers but paying them unconditionally, so that peer production can occur
A medium solution would be a set of transitional labour market policies which would ease various transitions between peer production and the market.
Companies can also provide 'benefit-sharing' to support the 'general infrastructure' of the commons on which they depend.
I'm interested in your vision of the second option, in specific detail,
Michel
Grüße
Stefan
