 Lecture 

Free Software, Free Culture: After the dotCommunist Manifesto   VIDEO 

 Abstract 

As I outlined in the dotCommunist Manifesto, http://moglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/dcm.html, the moral and political conflict over the ownership of culture that will define the first half of the twenty-first century has now been joined. In this talk, I shall be considering the role of software as an example of the transformation of culture and in relation to the creation of the infrastructure for revolution.
