Collapse

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

Design of next socio-economic system (lemmy.ml)

Are there any projects that are working on the design of some potential socio-economic / political systems, which could be used after collapse of the current system?

It seems like it would be good idea to design potential system beforehand, instead of quickly slapping one together under pressure of societal chaos.
And designing one from the start would allow for introduction of various features, which would be hard to implement by applying modifications to current system.
Features like some built-in mitigation of various kinds of corruption. Some increased flexibility for quick response to the exploitation of loopholes. Stuff like that.

Post any relevant links or resources.

I like where your head is at but… there are a lot of “projects” with the goal of designing a different political system. Currently, we are seeing Project 2025 being implemented which is rapidly turning our democracy into a totalitarian regime.

In regards to more hopeful projects, check out Solar Punk.
