Digital voluntary communities can produce collective goods unmet by states and markets.

Evidence

Commons organizing also has the potential to explain new types of voluntary communities in the twenty-first century that use digital tools and search for the common good, guiding a plurality of people on how to produce new collective goods and common resources, providing employment and work in common, coping with economic and social challenges and providing collective goods that are not fully met by public administrations and private organizations. — Laura Albareda and Alejo Jose G. Sison, Commons Organizing, 188
