A Revolution Is Coming…
In “Postcapitalism, A Guide to Our Future” Paul Mason writes about his visualizations of a potential exit from the cataclysm of the capitalist world we are living in to an imaginary revolved era he calls “Postcapitalism.” Despite the undeniably overwhelming issues such as: ecosystem damages, immigration crisis, and sever class differences that Mason elaborates throughout his book, he introduces methods that may contribute constructing a brilliant future in “Project Zero.” Indeed, the author of postcapitalism made a remarkable effort in terms of thinking of a project that aims reaching a zero-carbon energy system as well as a zero marginal cost; however not all of his thoughts are practical in real world scale.
In contradiction with Paul Mason, citizens of an independent state have to be paid based on how advantageous they are for their civilization. If one is not beneficiary for the society he is living in, why not refusing him the …show more content…
He believes “first, we need to open, accurate and comprehensive computer simulation of current economic reality. The source could be the models macro-economists use in bank and at OMF and OECD and the climate models that generate the IEA’s and other scenarios. Climate models tend to simulate the atmosphere using advanced math but simulate economy like a train set” (271). From Mason’s point of view, this huge computer model should use a method called “agent based modeling that is using computers to create millions of virtual workers, households and firms, and letting them interact spontaneously, within realistic boundaries” (272). “Once every object on earth is addressable, smart and feeding back information is an economic model that does not just simulate reality but actually represents it. The agents modelled virtually are eventually substituted by granular data from reality, just as happens with weather computers” (Mason,
