So there is a lot of speculation that capitalism is approaching it's end, and that transition to a different system will begin. Which will probably be even worse.

So, is there any better system being drafted and designed? Better for everyone that is. From what I understand, the core issue with most past and current systems is that the corruption led to their demise. So a good system would need to have an effective way of mitigating and removing corruption.

Are there any examples of a new political / socio-economic system being designed? Are there any communities that are working on something like this? Besides anarchists?

Any relevant links welcome.

For starters, an economic and financial system not built on the fundament on permanent, exponential growth would be a good start. I am not aware of any of such efforts. Surplus Energy Economics is sometimes mentioning this, but nothing concrete.

Just Tax Land. Henry George explains it better than I could.

people started working on this in the 1960s though most failed there were major lessons to be learned about it. It is very much the time to start building parallel institutions. the transition towns movement the FEC and FIC federation of communes people have been haphazardly lurching towards these things . worker owned and co-ops of the past and even lodge societies like the oddfellows have built humanistic social instituions that have been mostly ignored by mainstream society.

Im working on things with some other people right now. what country are you in ? how old and do you have any skills?
