Collaborative Democracy: The Transition From Moneydriven To Knowledgebased Society,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Industrial Revolution, triggered by the invention of the steam engine and the expansion of the railway network, gradually replaced autocracy with representative democracy, because the complexity of society had risen to a level, which left individual intelligence (i.e. autocracy) no longer capable of effective leadership. The only possible solution was a transition from individual to collective intelligence or from autocracy to democracy. Today, the Humanitarian Revolution, triggered by the invention of the computer and the expansion of the Internet, has turned humanity into a 'single organism'. Understandably, the complexity of this globalised world is now beyond the capacity of collective intelligence to effectively rule, and the only possible solution now is a transition from collective to collaborative intelligence. Collective and collaborative intelligence are different by definition. Collective intelligence is a decisionmaking mechanism based on a voting system. Collaborative intelligence is a problemsolving mechanism based on the verification of feasible models. The object of this book is to study the coevolution of economy, social consciousness (culture) and decisionmaking mechanisms; to explain the downfall of representative democracy; why 'restoration', 'repairing', 'reengineering' etc of representative democracy is impossible; and to outline the inevitable transition from a collective decisionmaking to a collaborative problemsolving mechanism in a globalised world.
