# Lexica Structura: ThinkAlike Project Introduction and Resource Request
## Context
We are a team of independent builders and visionaries, guided by the principles of "Enlightenment 2.0," who are working on a new open-source project: a decentralized platform named ThinkAlike. Our goals are to empower communities, and to create a truly ethical AI platform, that will promote a more just, and sustainable world. Our approach is based on participatory economics, liquid democracy, and open collaboration, with the understanding that all of our actions must be guided by principles of transparency, and user empowerment.
## Project Vision
We are building ThinkAlike to connect individuals, communities, and ideas. Our platform will provide practical tools for collaboration, learning, and action, with a strong focus on ethical AI implementation. We are creating a system where individuals can make meaningful contributions to the creation of a better world, and where technology is used as a tool for liberation, not for control.
## The Need for Expertise
As we move forward with the design and implementation of our system, we require specific resources to guide our approach, and to ensure we are aligned with the best practices for participatory economics.
## What We Seek
We need recommendations for:
* **Theoretical Frameworks:** What are the main sources that we should study, and what are the core books, authors, or studies that have been key to understanding participatory economics?
* **Practical Examples:** Are there specific examples of implementation of participatory economic principles? Are there real-world experiences that we can learn from?
* **Organizational Structures:** What are the main types of organizational structures that can be implemented in a participatory economy, with a focus on horizontal systems of decision making?
* **Tools and Methodologies:** Are there specific tools or methodologies that can help communities to implement participatory economic models?
* **Ethical Guidance:** How can we create a system that is ethical and inclusive to all participants, and that also guarantees a fair distribution of all resources?
If you are an expert in the area, or if you know of a tool, book, resource, or other project that can help us, please, respond to this post or contact us privately. Your insights would be invaluable in shaping the project and reaching our goals.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best Regards,
Eos Lumina
