cosmo local ness

first heard from michel: ‘what is heavy global.. what is light local’

and p2p [http://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Category:Cosmo-Local_Production]: ‘design global.. manufacture local;

the P2P Open Technology and Cosmo-Localism Group is a new project of the P2P Foundation designed to promote the sharing of knowledge and designs for distributed manufacturing, i.e. what we call cosmo-localism. facebook.com/groups/3343515…

Cosmo-localism means:

* to be fully local and fully ‘cosmic’ (planetary) AT THE SAME TIME *

it synthesizes ‘differentialism’, the right of every locale (bioregion) and translocal affinity tribe to be its full contextualize self, and ‘universalism’, the concern for the whole universe, i.e. the care for the planet and its long-term equilibrium for human and non-human beings

For an extensive framing but also many detailed case studies, see: * The Cosmo-Local Reader. Ed. José Ramos, Sharon Ede, Michel Bauwens and Gien Wong. 2021.

‘in undisturbed ecosystems ..average individual, species, or population, left to its own devices, behaves in ways that serve and stabilize the whole’ –Dana Meadows
