While much of my writing remains occluded from the public, I’d like to share the following with you:
- De-Commercializing Commerce : Written specifically to act as the writing sample for Universiteit van Amsterdam’s graduate school application, this paper elaborates on the specifics of two example ‘non-commercial engines of commerce.’ Based on an assertion that “piracy” is a social problem, it must therefore be resolved through social means; we all know what happens when criminalizing laws are applied to solve social issues. It concludes with proposals for two other non-commercial engines of commerce that could prove useful.
