Desde hace unos das estn disponibles los artculos y ensayos enviados para el Free Culture Research Workshop 2009. Todo indica que este ao tendremos un evento muy dinmico, un evento para discutir y aprender mucho. Adems de estar en el Comit Acadmico, hace unos meses tambin present un artculo (ingls) que resume parte de los desarrollos de mi tesis de doctorado. El ttulo completo es: Rethinking the intellectual common goods: tensions between appropriation and liberation of intellectual goods and works in the digital age (PDF)” (tambin aqu). La ponencia se ubica en la Sesion 3 (13:30 – 15:00): Free Culture and the Marketplace con los siguientes objetivos y preguntas:
Do creators operate differently in commercial vis-a-vis non-commercial environments? How can we best explore how social psychological, hedonic and financial motivations for production and participation play out in practice?; Is it possible to reconcile private property and intellectual commons without falling into contradiction, or is the commons-based paradigm of production destined to antagonize the logic of markets? How much control does the market need to operate effectively and how much freedom can it tolerate?
