Abstract/Description:

The monograph has, so far, argued that the necessity of creativity is being imperilled within the modern-day State, and that this in turn endangers the development of technologies such as 3D printing. Creativity has been critical to the development of the State, and this has relied upon the expression of the inner creativity of individuals. It is imperative that the zone of discourse is preserved, and not threatened by the overgrowth of an administrative zone. It was also argued that the flow of reproduction is equally important for the existence of creativity. This maintains the rationality of the State. To this end, the previous chapter outlined how economic reasoning has come to mask and hide the importance of creativity, and it proposed a creativity fund to help encourage access to existing creative works. This chapter takes the proposals further, to clearly set out the proposed systems.
