Here’s a lecture explaining our research focus, i.e. emerging peer production, peer governance, and peer property formats. The lecture was given at the University of Massachussets in Amherst, invited and organized by Professor Jan Servaes of the College of Social and Behavior Science Center for Communication for Sustainable Social Change, and appeared on local public television. It was held November 25, 2008 and originally called ‘Network Civilization’.

With it, we are also inaugurating a new video channel for my new employer, the Bangkok-based university DPUIC (the International College attached to Dhurakij Pundit University).

We are inviting Adam Arvidsson there on April 7, where he will give a lecture on his upcoming book on the Ethical Economy.

Thanks for spreading the word and here’s the video:
