Emerging digital technologies present new opportunities for developing complex cooperative strategies that change the way people work together to solve problems and generate wealth. Central to this class of cooperation-amplifying technologies are eight key clusters, each with distinctive contributions to cooperative strategy:
Each of these technology clusters can be viewed not
only as a template for design of cooperative systems,
but also as tools people can use to tune organizations,
projects, processes, and markets for increased
cooperation. Specifically, each can be used in distinctive
ways to alter the key dimensions of cooperative
systems structure, rules, resources, thresholds, feedback,
memory, and identity.
