The Weath of Networks by Yochai Benkler This is about one of the fundamental shifts in paradigm that we are witnessing nowadays... The old paradigm was that societies were best organized hierarchically with a central power garanteeing the preservation of the system. The new paradigm is about loose networks that somehow "quantically" and spontaneously organize. in Lessig Blog by Boris Lessig """ Yochai Benkler's book, The Weath of Networks, is out. This is -- by far -- the most important and powerful book written in the fields that matter most to me in the last ten years. If there is one book you read this year, it should be this. The book has a wiki; it can be downloaded as a pdf for free under a Creative Commons license; or it can be bought at places like Amazon. Read it. Understand it. You are not serious about these issues -- on either side of these debates -- unless you have read this book. """
