Illich’s notion of conviviality :
“I choose the term "conviviality"
to designate the opposite of
industrial productivity (…)
I consider conviviality to be
individual freedom realized in
personal interdependence and,
as such, an intrinsic ethical
value.”
Ivan Illich (1926-2002)

Limits of the reasoning and conclusion
Structural connection between commons-based peer production and virtues;
no unidirectional and direct causality
Normatively attractive
Peer production is not only a new mode of production to provide knowledge
and information, but also a source of desirable political, social and human
virtues that provide a context in which conviviality and democracy are
possible.
