In acest  discurs vizionar din 2005, Clay Shirky arata cum grupurile inchise si corporatiile vor ceda locul retelelor deschise in care contributori mici au roluri importante iar cooperarea fluida inlocuieste planificarea rigida.

Clay Shirky despre institutii versus colaborare

Traditional institutions rely on rigid structure and planning, but online networks like Flickr and Wikipedia harness the power of many small, voluntary contributions. A single user can add just one photo or line of code and still have outsized impact—on Flickr, 80 percent of contributors share less than the average yet shape the whole. As barriers to communication drop, fluid cooperation replaces hierarchy, making room for creativity and rapid change. This shift brings both new opportunities and unexpected risks as old boundaries dissolve.
