"Focusing on open source software the origin, development and organisation of a
process of de-commodification is examined in an industry that usually relies on strong
provisions to protect intellectual property. Open source denotes a cooperative and
voluntary mode of software development cross-cutting organisational boundaries
and transcending relations of market exchange. Starting with the Open Systems
Movement in the late 1970s, which was driven by business strategic and industrial
policy interests and complemented by a spirit of mutual support in professional communities,
a social movement type of collective action has emerged which develops
knowledge as a public good. Competent communities share the norms of the hacker
culture and cooperate in informal relations challenging the boundaries between
private and public goods. But the open source idea has also been transformed into a

make money with complementary products and services." (author's abstract)... weniger
