Dear fellow Extropians,
The alternative to corporate structures as a form of organization is
possibly a cooperative, integrated and interactive worker owned
environment, At issue would be the surrounding political environment.
It seems that among the many questions that would have to be asked is
whether in a highly competetive world economy large numbers of such
organizations can compete effectively when all the variables and
constraints in a multicultural world are taken into account.
I have my own theories, but I'd like to know what the rest of you think.
It would be nice to have a few realistic and implimentable proposals as
responses.
Enjoy,
