Neosubsistence - a version of subsistence in the digital age, where it becomes feasible for communities to produce all essential goods on the local scale - up to a modern standard of living - via an advanced level of import substition. This relies on globally-generated open design repositories and local production capacity, such as via RepLabs. Neosubsistence may include surplus production for outside markets, and it is a means whereby material security is generated by communities - or even individuals - motivated by pursuit of Higher Purpose. The requirement is lowered barriers of entry to acquiring productive skill and capital, such as via Immersion Training and OSE Community Capitalization.
One version of neosubsistence is the capacity to create a modern standard of living with 2 hours of work per day from local resources.
