\section{Durable Communities}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\vspace{0.2cm}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A durable community is one that is designed to last for generations. The intent towards durability does create some limitations on the kinds of communities that you can create.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
By durable we mean an organization that is intended to have stability long after all of the original organizers have moved on or passed the organization down to a new generation. Members of such an organization should have guaranteed rights to access the fruits of the organization, but do not have the right to destroy or dismember the organization.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\subsection{How does an organization have durability?}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When organizers create a structure that adds the design features of a stable commons. We can see a breakdown of these design principals in section 2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When decisions are made through a consensus process. We can see a breakdown of the consensus process in section 4.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When members have trust and mutual aid with each other. We can see a process for boot-strapping trust in section 6.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\subsection{How does an organization lack durability?}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When members have a shareholder model then there needs to be a cash-out process. Cash-outs can destabilize an organization.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When an organization is transitioned from one generation to the next as ownership, there is a problem where the inheritors may not be interested in participation, and so would need to exit the organization. Members exiting without a desire to maintain stability can cause destabilization.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\subsection{How can commons be made durable?}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Commons, if designed well, and governed well, could be a much more stable structure. In the first generation, both a commons and a cooperatively owned business have similar benefits and stability to the members. The generational turnover is very different. A commons will use the decision making process established to accept new members when a previous member leaves or passes away. Allowing the commons to decide who to include in future operation stabilizes the organization.

In high cost of living areas, communities formed around economic security can be particularly effective at allowing creative and other groups to remain in place as costs rise. Communities can use tools such as income pooling, cost splitting, or cooperatively run business ventures to support economic access.
