Instead, emerging models of information and cultural production, radically decentralized and based on I 33 emergent patterns of cooperation and sharing, but also of simple coordinate coexistence, are beginning to take on an ever-larger role in how we produce meaning - information, knowledge, and culture - in the networked information economy.
