com_linz_06_640 com_tai_01_600An anti market capitalisation art/game project by Big Hope, what sez:

The name Commonopoly is paraphrased from Monopoly, understood both as the economic term and the name of the well-known board game. Unlike Monopoly, the goal of Commonopoly is not the exhaustion, through monopolization, of a virtual stock of goods, but rather the expansion and preservation of a self-propelling sustainable system of recycling, production and distribution. The word ‘common’ employed in the name originates from the notion of ‘the commons’, that is, the resources such as air, water, public space etc. that by their nature contradict attempts at private ownership. Commonopoly is a model of a system where resources are held in common, avoiding their depletion.

Exchange, collaboration, mutual trust.

The long Winter evenings will just fly by.

Should you care for bass driven new ‘new’ wave and Munster musings about a disco. Probably Sir Henry’s.

When do we not want it?

Now.

Members of the Peace and Neutrality Alliance (PANA), – from left: Sinn Fein TD Sean Crowe, Seamus Rattigan and David Morrison) – released a Red C commissioned poll result today on Irish attitudes to intervention in Syria.

They say that approximately 8 in 10 Irish People do not support a war in Syria without a UN mandate  – roughly the same number who are now in favour of  Irish neutrality.

PANA seeks to advocate an “Independent Irish Foreign Policy, defend Irish Neutrality and to promote a reformed United Nations as the Institution through which Ireland should pursue its security concerns”.
