The demise of the nation state through technology and blockchain. With Pia Mancini
Show Notes

The world is leaning towards a new jurisdiction, one that shares commons of the planet on a global scale. Is the nation state becoming redundant?

The narrative of the nation state works on the theory that it is necessary, however with collectives issuing currency and people wanting change and demanding agency - this may upturn the axis.

Pia Mancini, democracy activist, open source sustainer, co-founder & CEO at Open Collective and Chair of DemocracyEarth Foundation, joins Niko Woischnik on the podcast this week.

She talks about how she got to tackle the worlds toughest problem: voices and change in the government. How she used tech to support citizen participation in government, created an app that explained jargon to allow people to discuss, voice and vote their opinion, and how technology and blockchain are tackling the global subjects to lead to a world with a more direct citizen participation in democracy.
