Viral Spiral
Viral Spiral is the term David Bollier coins to describe the almost magical process by which Internet users can come together to build online commons and tools. From free and open-source software, Creative Commons licenses, Wikipedia, remix music and video mashups to peer production, open science, open education, and open business - the world of digital media has spawned a new "sharing economy" that increasingly competes with entrenched media giants. Please join us for a discussion with David Bollier, author, Viral Spiral, on how commoners built a digital republic of their own. Bollier argues that during a period when the Bush Administration promoted privatization in all things and brought digital policy innovation to a standstill, free culture was one of the few spaces where idealism and innovation could run free. Free culture has built its own alternative democratic polity - a parallel digital universe that honors such radical ideas as participation, transparency, and accountability. David Bollier is a journalist, activist, and public policy analyst as well as Editor of Onthecommons.org. He is a former New America fellow and Co-Founder of Public Knowledge. A Senior Fellow at the Norman Lear Center, Bollier is the author of numerous highly praised books, including Brand Name Bullies and Silent Theft.

Education Policy in the Next Administration
When a new president takes office in January 2009, he will have a chance to substantially reshape education policy. The No Child Left Behind Act is currently due for reauthorization by Congress, offering the incoming administration an opportunity to put its stamp on key federal education legislation. State level policy developments, including current state fiscal challenges and the growth of state pre-k programs, provide further education challenges and opportunities. The two parties' presumptive nominees, Republican Sen. John mccain and Democratic Sen. Barack Obama, have offered very different visions for education policy under their potential administrations. Yet these proposals, and the differences between them, have received relatively little press coverage or media attention-even as 83 percent of voters tell pollsters that education is either extremely or very important to their votes for president. On July 24, the New America Foundation will host a discussion of the candidates' education proposals with education experts who helped shape those agendas. Lisa Graham Keegan is former Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction and education advisor to John mccain. Jon Schnur was Senior Advisor on Education to Vice President Al Gore and Special Assistant to US Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley, and has advised Barack Obama on education since he became a US Senator. Keegan and Schnur will describe the candidates' education agendas, discuss the outlook for education ...
