Context

A list of people oriented towards thinking about a sharing, commons, p2p oriented society.

For a cooperative publishing project with Shareable.

We aim to interview two people per month, with possible publication of interview book.



Introduction

Note from initial compiler Michel Bauwens:

Please note, a lot of people whom I find very interesting are not in here, because I or they do not necessarily see their work as part of this particular emergence and they belong to different paths. Also active activists who do not necessarily participate in the intellectual elaboration of p2p ideas are not included in this list. This list should in no way be seen as a list of approval or a select club to whom you do not belong. It is merely meant as a guide to find people with interesting ideas.

Thanks for suggesting names, and rationales for adding them.
