Panarchy 101: We Can Make It — Pioneering the Thing Commons | P2P Foundation

"There are two key infrastructures required for the Thing Commons.

First, there is the actual manufacturing or “making” infrastructure. This can range from larger factories, to medium sized “maker hubs”, to small personal-scale 3D printing devices. The primary empowerment of this infrastructure rests in making it easy for new entrants to join the existing network and extend and innovate the current tools and practices. Much of this exploration is already present in the global communities of “open hardware” and 3D-printing advocates."
