digital ecosocialism
*My hub note of entry points into trains of thought on digital ecosocialism. I intend to make some structure notes on the topic soon.
1. Core concepts
2. Principles
They embody the general principles of open knowledge; cooperativism; commoning; degrowth ; socially useful / ecologically safe production; adversarial interoperability; municipal support; innovation from below; and socialisation / deprivatisation (of physical and digital ICT infrastructure).
They should be transformative - i.e. actively enabling a transition to ecosocialism. They should not be simply maintaining the status quo or making mild reforms.
3. Examples
- Libre software can facilitate digital ecosocialism
- Data commons are digital ecosocialism
Examples of digital ecosocialist technologies and initiatives are: libre software; data commons; open hardware and the right to repair; platform cooperatives.
