Hi Juliana,
We spoke briefly at the drink party on Wednesday evening.
Generativity and open education for all.- see I believe chapter 4 of Jonathan Zittrain's "The Future of Internet"
I will send you some info on the "Theory of Socio-cultural Viability" which I believe brings new ideas to the field of solving the intractable problems of our times...
Cheers,
Charles
