Financial Innovation and the Commons - 10 May

on Thu, 05/24/2012 - 22:01

To begin, I offer a little guide to this journey I’d like to take you on tonight so that you know where we’re going and why.

Some people have called finance itself a commons, but this is very far from realized.

For finance to truly become a commons, a great deal of preliminary work is needed.

My talk this evening is about the reasons why finance will not be seen as a commons unless major changes take place beyond the financial world.

But these are the very changes which finance can help create.
