Based on small-scale, commons-based and market-oriented entrepreneurship, this industrious modernity is being pioneered by the many outcasts that no longer find a place within a crumbling industrial modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis new industriousness draws on the new planetary commons that have been generated by the globalisation of industrial capitalism itself. The outsourcing of material production to global supply chains has made the skills necessary to engage in commodity production generic and common, and the globalisation of media culture and the internet have generated new knowledge commons. Together these new commons have radically reduced the capital requirements to engage in economic activity, and are providing new, highly efficient tools of productive organisation at little cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis timely analysis of the new forces of change in our societies today will be of great interest to anyone concerned with the impact of digital technologies and the future of capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47430239322348,"sku":"9781509538904","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781509538904.jpg?v=1774559318"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/adam-arvidsson.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
