Book - Operational Analysis of Artificial Scarcity
Herbert Marcuse points out in One-Dimensional Man that a highly productive industrial system fails to provide for everyone. There are mechanisms by which freedom and prosperity to all have so far in history been elusive - from the Garden of Eden to the Digital Age.
What exactly are the specific mechanisms by which Artificial Scaricity is maintained, and even protected - both by conformists and those who call for change?
Transcending the current condition to freedom is one of the central, unsolved issues that society faces today.
In my Book, I will delve into the specifics of the mechanisms of artificial scarcity. The goal is to understand these mechanisms in order to propose an operational approach to addressing these mechanisms in human enterprise. Unlik theoretical analysis to date, the OSE experiment revolves around a practical approch - sociotechnical experiments and potentially scalable solutions to the central qeustion of freedom and prosperity for all.
