Economy 2.0: Roundtable #1


Josh Sidman leads the first-ever Economy 2.0 round table episode, featuring Will RuddickMichael MeehanTeun van Sambeek and George Lovegrove. The topic will be the potential for digital and/or blockchain technologies to apply the trust-based dynamics of family or community economy to an extended network in which participants do not know each other personally.

Aristotle defined economics as the study of “household management.” Households have a complex set of dynamics governing the rights and responsibilities of each member without the need for money or traditional economic contracts or institutions. What if modern technologies give us — for the first time in human history — the possibility of creating extended — or even global — networks built on these holistic dynamics, thus making possible a quantum leap forward in terms of human economy? These four thinkers will each bring their diverse perspectives on the subjects of alternative exchange paradigms and digital token systems to bear on this important and timely subject.

    Robert Morris: His Fight Against Localism in Revolutionary America


    The origin story of the United States of America is filled with numerous twists and turns. The fact that the people and leaders of the 13 British colonies managed to earn their independence from the 18th century’s most powerful naval and land power was anything but certain. However, winning independence required an army and a navy, as well as the capacity to provide all the goods necessary to match the enemy. In this lecture series, we present and discuss the role of Robert Morris, an American patriot who made it his life mission to coordinate and mobilize resources even when cooperation among the 13 States was difficult.

    Instructor: Edward J. Dodson
