"Are we moving #beyondcapitalism? If so, what alternatives are we moving towards and how will they be implemented?

Blaq Swans, a group that tracks and analyzes improbable events that shake the prevailing system, adapted the #CollaborativeEconomy Honeycomb to help the #P2PFoundation begin to answer these questions. The diagrams and full article can be found on the P2P Foundation’s site #CommonsTransition.
