Une coopérative est la combinaison d'un regroupement de personnes et d'une entreprise fondée sur la participation économique des membres, en capital et en opérations. Son organisation et son fonctionnement sont caractérisés par des principes et des valeurs qui confèrent à chaque coopérative un caractère universel, quel que soit son objet ou son secteur d'activité. Une partie de ces principes et valeurs, comme la démocratie à travers l'égalité de voix entre les membres, est traduite en norme juridique. L'identité coopérative s'identifie par sept principes de coopération. Ainsi, pour les prises de décision, elle repose sur le principe démocratique « une personne = une voix » qui devra élire un conseil d'administration qui nommera un directeur général. Les salariés et les membres-usagers sont ainsi tous égaux en droit.  +
Cotravail Le coworking, ou cotravail, est une méthode d'organisation du travail qui regroupe un espace de travail partagé et un réseau de travailleurs pratiquant l'échange et l'ouverture ; juridiquement cela se traduit par une location d'espaces partagés de travail. En d'autres termes, le cotravail qui constitue l'un des domaines de l'économie collaborative, laquelle est par essence non commerciale, est souvent présenté comme un contexte favorisant l'innovation. Les espaces de cotravail sont en pleine expansion et jouent un rôle important en favorisant la structuration d'un véritable réseau de cotravailleurs facilitant à la fois échanges directs, réseautage, coopération et créativité.  +
Coworking is an arrangement in which workers for different companies share an office space, allowing cost savings and convenience through the use of common infrastructures, such as equipment, utilities and receptionist and custodial services, and in some cases refreshments and parcel acceptance services. It is attractive to independent contractors, independent scientists, remote workers, digital nomads, and people who travel frequently. Additionally, coworking helps workers avoid the feeling of social isolation they may experience while remote working or traveling and eliminate distractions. Most coworking spaces charge membership dues. Major companies that provide coworking space and serviced offices include WeWork and IWG plc.  +
Creative Commons (CC) est une association à but non lucratif dont la finalité est de proposer une solution alternative légale aux personnes souhaitant libérer leurs œuvres des droits de propriété intellectuelle standard de leur pays, jugés trop restrictifs. L’organisation a créé plusieurs licences, connues sous le nom de licences Creative Commons. Ces licences, selon leur choix, ne protègent aucun ou seulement quelques droits relatifs aux œuvres. Le droit d'auteur (ou « copyright » dans les pays du Commonwealth et aux États-Unis) est plus restrictif.  +
Creative Commons (CC) is an American non-profit organization and international network devoted to educational access and expanding the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally and to share. The organization has released several copyright licenses, known as Creative Commons licenses, free of charge to the public. These licenses allow authors of creative works to communicate which rights they reserve and which rights they waive for the benefit of recipients or other creators. An easy-to-understand one-page explanation of rights, with associated visual symbols, explains the specifics of each Creative Commons license. Content owners still maintain their copyright, but Creative Commons licenses give standard releases that replace the individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner (licensor) and licensee, that are necessary under an "all rights reserved" copyright management. The organization was founded in 2001 by Lawrence Lessig, Hal Abelson, and Eric Eldred with the support of Center for the Public Domain. The first article in a general interest publication about Creative Commons, written by Hal Plotkin, was published in February 2002. The first set of copyright licenses was released in December 2002. The founding management team that developed the licenses and built the Creative Commons infrastructure as it is known today included Molly Shaffer Van Houweling, Glenn Otis Brown, Neeru Paharia, and Ben Adida. In 2002, the Open Content Project, a 1998 precursor project by David A. Wiley, announced the Creative Commons as successor project and Wiley joined as CC director. Aaron Swartz played a role in the early stages of Creative Commons, as did Matthew Haughey. As of 2019, there were "nearly 2 billion" works licensed under the various Creative Commons licenses. Wikipedia and its sister projects use one of these licenses. According to a 2017 report, Flickr alone hosted over 415 million cc-licensed photos, along with around 49 million works in YouTube, 40 million works in DeviantArt and 37 million works in WikiMedia Commons. The licenses are also used by Stack Exchange, MDN, Internet Archive, Khan Academy, LibreTexts, OpenStax, MIT OpenCourseWare, WikiHow, OpenStreetMap, GeoGebra, Doubtnut, Fandom, Arduino, ccmixter.org, ninjam etc, and formerly by Unsplash, Pixabay and Socratic.  
A cryptocurrency, crypto-currency, or crypto is a digital currency designed to work as a medium of exchange through a computer network that is not reliant on any central authority, such as a government or bank, to uphold or maintain it. It is a decentralized system for verifying that the parties to a transaction have the money they claim to have, eliminating the need for traditional intermediaries, such as banks, when funds are being transferred between two entities. Individual coin ownership records are stored in a digital ledger, which is a computerized database using strong cryptography to secure transaction records, to control the creation of additional coins, and to verify the transfer of coin ownership. Despite their name, cryptocurrencies are not considered to be currencies in the traditional sense and while varying treatments have been applied to them, including classification as commodities, securities, as well as currencies, cryptocurrencies are generally viewed as a distinct asset class in practice. Some crypto schemes use validators to maintain the cryptocurrency. In a proof-of-stake model, owners put up their tokens as collateral. In return, they get authority over the token in proportion to the amount they stake. Generally, these token stakers get additional ownership in the token over time via network fees, newly minted tokens or other such reward mechanisms. Cryptocurrency does not exist in physical form (like paper money) and is typically not issued by a central authority. Cryptocurrencies typically use decentralized control as opposed to a central bank digital currency (CBDC). When a cryptocurrency is minted or created prior to issuance or issued by a single issuer, it is generally considered centralized. When implemented with decentralized control, each cryptocurrency works through distributed ledger technology, typically a blockchain, that serves as a public financial transaction database. Traditional asset classes like currencies, commodities, and stocks, as well as macroeconomic factors, have modest exposures to cryptocurrency returns. The first decentralized cryptocurrency was Bitcoin, which first released as open-source software in 2009. As of March 2022, there were more than 9,000 other cryptocurrencies in the marketplace, of which more than 70 had a market capitalization exceeding $1 billion.  
La culture libre est un mouvement social et une sous-culture qui promeut la liberté de distribuer et de modifier des œuvres de l'esprit sous la forme d'œuvres libres par l'utilisation d'internet ou, plus rarement, d'autres formes de médias. Il puise sa philosophie dans celle du logiciel libre en l'appliquant à la culture et à l'information, dans des domaines aussi variés que les arts, l'éducation, les sciences, etc. La culture libre défend notamment l'idée que les droits d'auteurs ne doivent pas porter atteinte aux libertés fondamentales du public. La gestion des droits numériques (DRM) est, par exemple, dénoncée comme une entrave à la liberté d'usage du produit légalement acquis, alors que la protection du fonctionnement du produit (code source du programme, partition de musique, etc.) empêche l'utilisateur de modifier l'œuvre pour en faire sa propre version. Les mécanismes juridiques des licences libres attachées à la culture sont inspirés du logiciel libre : l'utilisation des licences art libre ou Creative Commons a ainsi permis l'émergence de la musique libre et de l'art libre. Les défenseurs de la culture libre, appelés libristes, utilisent de façon détournée les monopoles accordés par les droits d'auteur en créant leurs propres licences libres, cela afin d'autoriser précisément les usages que les lois sur les droits d'auteur prescrivent par défaut. L'immense majorité des défenseurs de la culture libre prennent également position pour le droit à la vie privée, l'accès libre à l'information et la liberté d'expression sur Internet. Certains militants ont aussi pu commettre des actes illégaux au cours de leur combat, comme l'infraction au copyright (The Pirate Bay, Aaron Swartz) ou bien la divulgation de données confidentielles qu'ils considèrent comme d'intérêt public (Edward Snowden, Alexandra Elbakyan avec Sci-Hub).  +
The free-culture movement is a social movement that promotes the freedom to distribute and modify the creative works of others in the form of free content or open content without compensation to, or the consent of, the work's original creators, by using the Internet and other forms of media. The movement objects to what it considers over-restrictive copyright laws. Many members of the movement argue that such laws hinder creativity. They call this system "permission culture". The free-culture movement, with its ethos of free exchange of ideas, is aligned with the free and open-source-software movement, as well as other movements and philosophies such as open access (OA), the remix culture, the hacker culture, the access to knowledge movement, the copyleft movement and the public domain movement.  +
Cultural heritage is the heritage of tangible and intangible heritage assets of a group or society that is inherited from past generations. Not all heritages of past generations are "heritage"; rather, heritage is a product of selection by society. Cultural heritage includes tangible culture (such as buildings, monuments, landscapes, books, works of art, and artifacts), intangible culture (such as folklore, traditions, language, and knowledge), and natural heritage (including culturally significant landscapes, and biodiversity). The term is often used in connection with issues relating to the protection of Indigenous intellectual property. The deliberate act of keeping cultural heritage from the present for the future is known as preservation (American English) or conservation (British English), which cultural and historical ethnic museums and cultural centers promote, though these terms may have more specific or technical meanings in the same contexts in the other dialect. Preserved heritage has become an anchor of the global tourism industry, a major contributor of economic value to local communities. Legal protection of cultural property comprises a number of international agreements and national laws.United Nations, UNESCO and Blue Shield International deal with the protection of cultural heritage. This also applies to the integration of United Nations peacekeeping.  +
Le patrimoine culturel se définit comme l'ensemble des biens, matériels ou immatériels, ayant une importance artistique et/ou historique certaine, et qui appartiennent soit à une entité privée (personne, entreprise, association, etc.), soit à une entité publique (commune, département, région, pays, etc.) ; cet ensemble de biens culturels est généralement préservé, restauré, sauvegardé et montré au public, soit de façon exceptionnelle (comme les Journées européennes du patrimoine qui ont lieu un week-end au mois de septembre), soit de façon régulière (château, musée, église, etc.), gratuitement ou au contraire moyennant un droit d'entrée et de visite payant. * Le patrimoine dit « matériel » est surtout constitué des paysages construits, de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme, des sites archéologiques et géologiques, de certains aménagements de l'espace agricole ou forestier, d'objets d'art et mobilier, du patrimoine industriel (outils, instruments, machines, bâti, etc.). * Le patrimoine dit « immatériel » peut revêtir différentes formes : chants, coutumes, danses, traditions gastronomiques, jeux, mythes, contes et légendes, petits métiers, témoignages, captation de techniques et de savoir-faire, documents écrits et d'archives (dont audiovisuelles), etc. Le patrimoine fait appel à l'idée d'un héritage légué par les générations qui nous ont précédés, et que nous devons transmettre intact ou augmenté aux générations futures, ainsi qu'à la nécessité de constituer un patrimoine pour demain. On dépasse donc largement la simple propriété personnelle (droit d'user « et d'abuser » selon le droit romain). Il relève du bien public et du bien commun. « La culture ne s'hérite pas, elle se conquiert. » — André Malraux (1935)  +
Culture (/ˈkʌltʃər/) is an umbrella term which encompasses the social behavior, institutions, and norms found in human societies, as well as the knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, customs, capabilities, and habits of the individuals in these groups. Culture is often originated from or attributed to a specific region or location. Humans acquire culture through the learning processes of enculturation and socialization, which is shown by the diversity of cultures across societies. A cultural norm codifies acceptable conduct in society; it serves as a guideline for behavior, dress, language, and demeanor in a situation, which serves as a template for expectations in a social group.Accepting only a monoculture in a social group can bear risks, just as a single species can wither in the face of environmental change, for lack of functional responses to the change.Thus in military culture, valor is counted a typical behavior for an individual and duty, honor, and loyalty to the social group are counted as virtues or functional responses in the continuum of conflict. In the practice of religion, analogous attributes can be identified in a social group. Cultural change, or repositioning, is the reconstruction of a cultural concept of a society. Cultures are internally affected by both forces encouraging change and forces resisting change. Cultures are externally affected via contact between societies. Organizations like UNESCO attempt to preserve culture and cultural heritage.  +
En philosophie, le mot culture désigne ce qui est différent de la nature. En sociologie, comme en éthologie, la culture est définie de façon plus étroite comme « ce qui est commun à un groupe d'individus » et comme « ce qui le soude », c'est-à-dire ce qui est appris, transmis, produit et inventé. Ainsi, pour une organisation internationale comme l'UNESCO : « Dans son sens le plus large, la culture peut aujourd’hui être considérée comme l'ensemble des traits distinctifs, spirituels, matériels, intellectuels et affectifs, qui caractérisent une société ou un groupe social. Elle englobe, outre les arts, les lettres et les sciences, les modes de vie, les lois, les systèmes de valeurs, les traditions et les croyances ». Ce « réservoir commun » évolue dans le temps par et dans les formes des échanges. Il se constitue en de multiples manières distinctes d'être, de penser, d'agir et de communiquer en société. Par abus de langage, le mot « culture » est employé pour désigner presque exclusivement l'offre de pratiques et de services culturels dans les sociétés modernes, et en particulier dans le domaine des arts et des lettres.  +
D
Degrowth (French: décroissance) is a term used for both a political, economic, and social movement as well as a set of theories that critique the paradigm of economic growth. It can be described as an extensive framework that is based on critiques of the growth-centered economic system in which we are living. Degrowth is based on ideas from a diverse range of lines of thought such as political ecology, ecological economics, feminist political ecology, and environmental justice, pointing out the social and ecological harm caused by the pursuit of infinite growth and Western "development" imperatives. Degrowth emphasizes the need to reduce global consumption and production (social metabolism) and advocates a socially just and ecologically sustainable society with social and environmental well-being replacing GDP as the indicator of prosperity. Hence, although GDP is likely to shrink in a "Degrowth society", i.e. a society in which the objectives of the degrowth movement are achieved, this is not the primary objective of degrowth. The main argument degrowth raises is that an infinite expansion of the economy is fundamentally contradictory to finite planetary boundaries. Degrowth highlights the importance of autonomy, care work, self-organization, commons, community, open localism, work sharing, happiness and conviviality.  +
La démocratie participative est une forme de partage et d'exercice du pouvoir, fondée sur le renforcement de la participation des citoyens à la prise de décision politique. On parle également de « démocratie délibérative » pour mettre l'accent sur les différents processus permettant la participation du public à l'élaboration des décisions, pendant la phase de délibération. La démocratie participative ou délibérative peut prendre plusieurs formes, mais elle s'est d'abord instaurée sur le terrain de l'aménagement du territoire et de l'urbanisme, avant de s'étendre dans les champs de l'environnement. Dans ces cadres, les associations jouent un rôle central en tant qu'interlocuteurs pour les autorités publiques. En France, une Charte de la participation du public du ministère de l'Écologie liste les bonnes pratiques en matière de participation du public.  +
Participatory democracy or participant democracy is a form of government in which citizens participate individually and directly in political decisions and policies that affect their lives, rather than through elected representatives. Elements of direct and representative democracy are combined in this model.  +
Democracy (From Ancient Greek: δημοκρατία, romanized: dēmokratía, dēmos 'people' and kratos 'rule') is a form of government in which the people have the authority to deliberate and decide legislation ("direct democracy"), or to choose governing officials to do so ("representative democracy"). Who is considered part of "the people" and how authority is shared among or delegated by the people has changed over time and at different rates in different countries, but over time more and more of a democratic country's inhabitants have generally been included. Cornerstones of democracy include freedom of assembly, association, property rights, freedom of religion and speech, inclusiveness and equality, citizenship, consent of the governed, voting rights, freedom from unwarranted governmental deprivation of the right to life and liberty, and minority rights. The notion of democracy has evolved over time considerably. The original form of democracy was a direct democracy. The most common form of democracy today is a representative democracy, where the people elect government officials to govern on their behalf such as in a parliamentary or presidential democracy. Prevalent day-to-day decision making of democracies is the majority rule, though other decision making approaches like supermajority and consensus have also been integral to democracies. They serve the crucial purpose of inclusiveness and broader legitimacy on sensitive issues—counterbalancing majoritarianism—and therefore mostly take precedence on a constitutional level. In the common variant of liberal democracy, the powers of the majority are exercised within the framework of a representative democracy, but the constitution limits the majority and protects the minority—usually through the enjoyment by all of certain individual rights, e.g. freedom of speech or freedom of association. The term appeared in the 5th century BC in Greek city-states, notably Classical Athens, to mean "rule of the people", in contrast to aristocracy (ἀριστοκρατία, aristokratía), meaning "rule of an elite". Western democracy, as distinct from that which existed in antiquity, is generally considered to have originated in city-states such as those in Classical Athens and the Roman Republic, where various schemes and degrees of enfranchisement of the free male population were observed before the form disappeared in the West at the beginning of late antiquity. In virtually all democratic governments throughout ancient and modern history, democratic citizenship was initially restricted to an elite class, which was later extended to all adult citizens. In most modern democracies, this was achieved through the suffrage movements of the 19th and 20th centuries. Democracy contrasts with forms of government where power is either held by an individual, as in autocratic systems like absolute monarchy, or where power is held by a small number of individuals, as in an oligarchy—oppositions inherited from ancient Greek philosophy. Karl Popper defined democracy in contrast to dictatorship or tyranny, focusing on opportunities for the people to control their leaders and to oust them without the need for a revolution. World public opinion strongly favors democratic systems of government. According to the V-Dem Institute and Economist Intelligence Unit democracy indices, less than half the world's population lives in a democracy as of 2021. Democratic backsliding with a rise in hybrid regimes has exceeded democratization since the early to mid 2010s.  
Le développement durable (en anglais : sustainable development, parfois traduit par développement soutenable) est une conception du développement qui s'inscrit dans une perspective de long terme et en intégrant les contraintes écologiques et sociales à l'économie. Selon la définition donnée dans le rapport de la Commission mondiale sur l'environnement et le développement de l'Organisation des Nations unies, dit rapport Brundtland, où cette expression est apparue pour la première fois en 1987, « le développement durable est un développement qui répond aux besoins du présent sans compromettre la capacité des générations futures de répondre aux leurs ». Cette notion s'est imposée à la suite de la prise de conscience progressive, depuis les années 1970, de la finitude écologique de la Terre, liée aux limites planétaires sur le long terme. La notion fait toutefois l'objet de , notamment de la part des tenants de la décroissance, pour lesquels cette notion reste trop liée à celle de la croissance économique, mais aussi de la part de ceux qui y voient un frein au développement.  +
Sustainable development is an organizing principle for meeting human development goals while also sustaining the ability of natural systems to provide the natural resources and ecosystem services on which the economy and society depend. The desired result is a state of society where living conditions and resources are used to continue to meet human needs without undermining the integrity and stability of the natural system. Sustainable development was defined in the 1987 Brundtland Report as "Development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs". As the concept of sustainable development developed, it has shifted its focus more towards the economic development, social development and environmental protection for future generations. Sustainable development was first institutionalized with the Rio Process initiated at the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. In 2015 the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Sustainable Development Goals(2015 to 2030) and explained how the goals are integrated and indivisible to achieve sustainable development at the global level. The 17 goals address the global challenges, including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace, and justice. Sustainable development is interlinked with the normative concept of sustainability. UNESCO formulated a distinction between the two concepts as follows: "Sustainability is often thought of as a long-term goal (i.e. a more sustainable world), while sustainable development refers to the many processes and pathways to achieve it." The concept of sustainable development has been criticized in various ways. While some see it as paradoxical (or an oxymoron) and regard development as inherently unsustainable, others are disappointed in the lack of progress that has been achieved so far. Part of the problem is that "development" itself is not consistently defined.  +
The right to the city is an idea and a slogan first proposed by Henri Lefebvre in his 1968 book Le Droit à la Ville. This idea has been taken up more recently by social movements, thinkers, and certain progressive local authorities as a call to action to reclaim the city as a co-created space: a place for life detached from the growing effects that commodification and capitalism are proposed to have had over social interaction and the rise of posited spatial inequalities in worldwide cities throughout the last two centuries.  +
The right to housing (occasionally right to shelter) is the economic, social and cultural right to adequate housing and shelter. It is recognized in some national constitutions and in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The right to housing is regarded as a freestanding right in the International human rights law which was clearly in the 1991 General Comment on Adequate Housing by the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The aspect of the right to housing under ICESCR include: availability of services, infrastructure, material and facilities; legal security of tenure; habitability; accessibility; affordability; location and cultural adequacy. The UN Human Settlement Programme which promotes the right to housing in cooperation with the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Right is a reaffirmation of the 1996 Istanbul agreement and Habitat Agenda. It is known as UN-HABITAT, which is tasked with promoting housing rights through monitoring systems and awareness campaigns. The section 26, chapter Two of the South African constitution establishes that ''everyone has the right to have access to adequate housing'' and it is the task of the Department of Human Settlement to implement this mandate. In United States, most states do not grant the right to shelter except in Massachusetts where just families have right to shelter. The 1999 constitution of Nigeria recognized the right to housing specifically in the section 43 which states: ''every citizen of Nigeria shall have the right to acquire and own immovable property anywhere in Nigeria''.  +
