I’m at the Corante\/Shared Insights ‘Community 2.0<\/a>‘ conference in Las Vegas, and having an interesting time hanging and meeting the various figures in the Web 2.0 world.<\/p>\n

There’s an interesting intersection developing between my professional and blogging life developing here.<\/p>\n

I’ve talked for a long time about the political implications of the kinds of ’emergent management’ which is represented by the kind of projects these people are engaged in growing. It’s also highly relevant to the issues important to the Winds audience, as John Robb points out in his latest post<\/a> at Global Guerrillas.<\/p>\n

Now I’ll disagree with some of the more extreme evangelists here in Vegas who believe that everything in business will be dissolved into a soup of community, just as I’ll disagree with Robb when he says that the guerilla ‘Bazaar of Violence’ poses almost insurmountable challenges to traditional states. What I argue will happen is that the Web 2.0 challenge to major businesses – like newspapers – is that newspapers share will decline enough that they can no longer act as a monopoly in setting prices for ads.<\/p>\n

Similarly, states will see that their monopoly on legitimacy will be challenged, and states with weak legitimacy will find themselves declining as they can’t maintain the level of legitimacy necessary to function.<\/p>\n

That’s the pivotal question, and it’s both an issue I’ll be dealing with professionally (in a business environment) and as a citizen and blogger (here).<\/p>\n
