Democracy, Disturbing Developments, and OER
I haven't had a chance to think this through yet, but I would like to note it for later reflection and to hear others' thoughts on the topic. In the "Who Should Own Ideas" section of Session 2 of the OERu course, Open Education, Copyright and Open Licensing in a Digital World (LiDA103), it was something Eben Moglen said at the end of his section of the video with Lawrence Lessig that sparked this train of thought. The era of president for life is over. We are holding elections here. Here...we made this. It is called democracy. Would you like some? It is free. (Eben Moglen)
