Discussion article for the meetup : August Rationality Dojo: Governing the Commons

WHEN: 03 August 2014 03:30:00PM (+1000)

WHERE: Ross House Association, 247-251 Flinders Lane, Melbourne

[ATTN: The Dojos now have a new location: the Jenny Florence Room, Level 3, Ross House at 247 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. And a new start time: 3:30pm - although if you get there early we'll be gathering in the foyer.]

The Less Wrong Sunday Rationality Dojos are crafted to be serious self-improvement sessions for those committed to the Art of Rationality and personal growth. Each month a community member will run a session involving a presentation of content, discussion, and exercises.

Continuing the succession of immensely successful dojos, Adam will run a session on governing the commons - Elinor Ostrom's principles for avoiding tragedy of the commons. It's applicable to everything from sharehouse internet to the global climate system. A good thing to have in your mental toolbox.

As always, we will review the personal goals we committed to at the previous Dojo (I will have done X by the next Dojo). Scott Fowler recorded the commitments, if you didn't make it but would like to add your own goal to the records, send him a message (shokwave.sf@gmail.com).

The Dojo is likely to run for 2-3 hours, after which some people will get dinner together.

If you have any trouble finding the venue or getting in, call me on 0419 192 367.

If you would like to present at a future Dojo or suggest a topic, please fill it in on the Rationality Dojo Roster: http://is.gd/dojoroster
