Ep 250 Who Likes Participatory Planning Part 2 Oct 08, 2023

Show notes

Episode 250 of RevolutionZ is the second of what will be three episodes presenting participatory planning as a proposed replacement for markets and central planning for allocation in a new economy. Ep 250 continues describing participatory planning's features as earlier described in the book No Bosses, as well as offering spontaneous critical or hopefully helpful side comments on the material two years after I wrote it. The material is demanding but to say we want a new economy beyond capitalism but not be able to explain why it would be viable and worthy will not sway people who think there is no alternative.

Ep 249 Who Likes Participatory Planning Part 1 Oct 01, 2023

Show notes

Episode 249 of the podcast titled RevolutionZ is the first of three that will together present and comment on Participatory Planning. Most of the content is from two years ago, the book No Bosses, which presents participatory economics. But interspersed throughout these episodes are also clarifying and critical comments I make, now, as I revisit the content. Three episodes on one component of a post capitalist economic vision? Well, allocation beyond markets and central planning is not simple and has many moving parts so that describing it fully enough to assess will take some time. Indeed, the three episodes aren't week after week but themselves spread out a bit so that if you send comments and questions I can use those to augment subsequent content.

Ep 245 Who Does What Sep 03, 2023

Show notes

Episode 245 of RevolutionZ considers in depth the division of labor as it is now, called corporate division of labor, and as it is proposed in order to have no bosses, balanced job complexes. It addresses why and how to implement a new division of labor in terms of class, power, income, and mainly the types of tasks employees do. It derives from No Bosses chapter 4 but includes considerable spontaneous commentary.
