« Intellectuel capital
is the real motor in this new era and therefore even more
coveted »*

« Disposing, possessing and accumulating
make scarcely any sense within an economy where the only permanent
feature is change. (…) The
conceptions, the ideas, the images, and no longer the material
objects, carry a real value in this new economy »
Being an influential personality in the United
States, Jeremy Rifkin owes a large part of his notoriety to his
fifteen publications - often alarming - on the subject of the
consequences to be expected from the technical disruptions in our economic and social
existences. As a media militant he takes a position against
the best of the worlds which worldwide logic prepares for us.
The RU3 project is based on the principle of intellectual
capital's sharing. We can consider that collective intelligence
borned from this sharing should be imperatively protected, as
collective patrimony, attempts of private or public appropriations.
The project is developed on a concept
of virtual network where the intellectual property loose all her
signification.
