Radicle Civics
Building 21st Century Civic Infrastructures
Radicle civics aims to explore, through intentional practice, alternative pathways of organising the future, based on positive visions of distributed agency and a super-diverse public, which both challenges and unburdens numerous concentrations of power and responsibility, whether in the domains of accounting, money formation, agreements, registries, identity systems, laws or institutions. We seek to draw out the civic roots of our future societies, expanding the horizon of both the possible and necessary.
This future is explored from the perspective of recognising we exist in an unbounded world and the recognition of this future being inhabited by diverse autonomous agents, be they humans, future humans and non-humans – trees, rivers, mountains. Further, we recognise this future invites us to un-constitute and re-constitute society and embrace emerging possibilities built on a new practice of civic institutional infrastructures in order to enable all beings to thrive in a safe and just space.
