The Era of the Participatory System
內容大綱
While the global issues of our time each present unique challenges, they have one thing in common: they require mass participation. Finding solutions to climate change, demographic shifts, the prevention and management of chronic disease, the provision of safe water supplies and food security -- to name but a few -- requires the pooling of diverse types of knowledge and resources and harnessing the motivation of billions of individuals and their communities. The author describes the emergence of 'participatory systems', which combine different types of knowledge and resources to provide a service or social solution. With their ability to attract mass enthusiasm and harness mass collaboration at low cost, she says, their time is now.
