Join the Governance Reading Group 📖
Progressive decentralization is a core objective of the Nexus Mutual team. But what does it mean to progressively decentralize?
We believe there’s great value in studying the history of cooperatives, commons management, and online collaboration. These foundations help us build the theoretical grounding needed to navigate decentralized governance.
The Governance Reading Group is open to anyone passionate about self-governance. We meet online every two weeks to discuss 30–40 pages of a collaboratively selected book or paper.
You can find some of our past reading lists on the Nexus Mutual Forum.
