Resonant GuideHigher Education now has an interdisciplinary curriculum of cooperation studies... in which cooperative arrangements, interdependencies, and collective action play a more prominent role... scientists are beginning to see how cooperation actually works in biology, sociology, mathematics, psychology, economics, computer science and political science... Non-students who live in the area can show up to the course without signing up! UPDATED April 28, 2006

What can evolutionary biology teach us about the complexities of human cooperation? Can institutions for collective action be designed more effectively by examining the ways people agree to use water, grazing lands, fisheries, intellectual property? Do alternative currencies, peer production techniques, collectively-created online public goods point toward a sharing economy that differs in fundamental ways from previous means of organizing production? What are the opportunities and dangers of hyper-mediated collective action via smart mobs and mobile social software? Is open-source politics the beginning of an emergent democracy, or a media fad?

Thousands of volunteers have created over one million pages of the free encyclopedia Wikipedia - in over 100 languages. The Wikipedia definition of Co-operation / Cooperation is the practice of people or greater entities working in common with commonly agreed-upon goals and possibly methods, instead of working separately in competition.

The open source movement showed that world-class software could be built without corporate oversight or market incentives... Collective knowledge-gathering, sharing economies, social software, prediction markets - numerous experiments in technology-assisted cooperation are taking place.
