Ecological Economy
Posted by imdad on January 6, 2009
I watched this documentary yesterday (Money As Debt):
It was very enlightning. I was surprised to learn a lot many new things about how banks and (eventually) economy actually function.
In this video was mentioned: Local Exchange Trading Systems (LETS). (which i sought out for in wikipedia)
This wiki turned out to be, what can i say, quite interesting and resourceful. It showed me route to so many other articles which were very similar to the ideas i had talked about in my earlier blog, Banking through Social Network Cohesion. Some articles worth mentioning here:
- Ripple monetary system
- Ecological Economics
- Refer the whole “See also” section
This indeed is an example where wikipedia and internet in general have been of such good help. And i believe that this aspect makes it possible that internet could play a very prominent role in changing the economic patterns for the better.
