38: Holistic Community Development with Anna Brodsky

Anna Brodsky is cofounder of the Global Redesign Institute, a childcare activist, and advocate for Structural Satyagraha: the design and implementation of infrastructure which supports and rewards nonviolent behavior. We talk about the meaning of structural satyagraha, American inventor Buckminster Fuller’s term Dymaxion, Project Cybersyn, and their lovechild, Dymaxyn, open source cities, education, childcare as the regulatory subsystem of the community, post-scarcity, open-access governance, and holistic approaches to the future of society. Agora Politics is dedicated to upgrading our outdated theories of politics. Doing so requires honest and forthright engagement with not only academics, entrepreneurs, and intellectuals, but luminaries of all types who are tuning in to the zeitgeist and attempting to synthesize stories of the past, with knowledge of the present, and visions of the future.
