'Accessism' is a 21st-century socio-economic framework that treats the Earth as a single shared operating system that must be intelligently updated to eliminate practical scarcity, serve all inhabitants equally (human and non-human), and replace competition with open-source feedback-driven abundance.
Core principles
* Civilisation is a planetary operating system that is currently running obsolete 20th-century code (capitalism, state socialism, labour-party reformism). * The update is written in open-source, decentralised, real-time feedback loops rather than central planning or corporate ownership. * Technology and automation are redirected from profit to universal needs satisfaction and ecological restoration. * Power must be distributed by design; any concentration of control is treated as a bug to be patched immediately.
Relation to Open Access Economy
Accessism is one concrete implementation proposal for an Open Access Economy. While the broader Open Access Economy concept remains ideology-agnostic, Accessism explicitly rejects: * Markets as the allocation mechanism * Wage labour as the distribution mechanism * Any form of representative hierarchy as the decision-making mechanism
Instead it proposes a global network of sensor-equipped resource commons governed by transparent, auditable, and instantly revocable algorithms.
