Reader

political theory
  • Michael Hardt – Politics of the Common (2009) [1]. Hardt gives very good summary of current debates about the commons. he explains the immaterial property and the common got into centre of contemporary production shifting away from industrial capitalist mobile/immobile commodity properties. he says that today the capital and economic development paradoxically relies on the common, and that the central task for contemporary society is

to develop an alternative management of the common. By the common he means the ecological (earth, ecosystems, and all forms of life interacting with them) and social/cultural (shared products of human labor–ideas, images, affects, social relationships) domains. that is not much news, but what is interesting – these two domains are often treated separately, and here hardt mentions two major instances of contradictions which link them: contradiction between private property and the common; and the fact that the value of common is immeasurable with the traditional capitalist system of measures (and is rather based on value of life, which we have not yet invented). / O ‘the common’ hovori ako o ekologickych (lesy, plaze, vzduch, jazera) a nematerialnych socialnych/kulturnych statkoch (videa, texty, fotky, idey, pocity, socialne vztahy, zabava, nove formy zivota), ku ktorym maju (mat) vsetci volny pristup. hovori o dvoch hlavnych rozporoch s ohladom na klasicky system – konkretne nemoznost urcit ich (ekonomicku) hodnotu, a problem vlastnickeho vztahu k nim.

  • Slavoj Zizek – Ecology: A New Opium of the Masses [2] (incl. video) tu zizek vychadza z idei commons ako ju chapu hardt a negri, a jemne ju rozsiruje: commons ako kultura, externa priroda (ekologia), a interna priroda (biogenetika). tvrdi, ze je do commons zasadne zapojit aj mensiny, populaciu vylucenu z politickych procesov.

(je tam aj video prednaska)

economy
  • Lawrence Lessig – Remix: Making Art and Commerce Thrive in the Hybrid Economy (2008) [3] hovori o tom, ako mozu ist dokopy ekonomika ‘komercie’ (klasicky online biznis) a ‘zdielania’ (v ktorej nefigujuru peniaze–napr. priatelstvo alebo P2P filesharing). odtial by bolo dobre vytiahnut nejaku cast, ale najst nejaky sumarizujuci text, pripadne jeho kritiku.
  • Mikael Pawlo – What’s the meaning of “non-commercial”? (2004) [4] Pawlo je sef svedskych iCommons a kritizuje tu fakt, ze drviva vacsina materialov pod CC pouziva klauzulku ‘non-commercial’. pyta sa co to znamena — a dava vela prikladov, kde sa to co je commercial a co non-commercial neda urcit – napriklad: verejna televizia, verejne skoly, reklamy na neziskovky, rss-feedy embednute vo weboch na ktorych je reklama - to su priklady, v ktorych nie je mozne urcit ci mozeme pouzit CC videa ktore su sirene pod noncommercial licenciou.
