What will governments of the future look like? Alex Voss points to three trends that are shaping the future: 1. Special jurisdictions are becoming more numerous, autonomous, and are increasingly operated by private companies. 2. The world's population is increasingly mobile, and people with high-value skills are shopping around, viewing governance as a service. 3. Technology is enabling decentralization in numerous arenas, especially money. This gives jurisdictions more options to become financially independent. What other trends will be important to the future of governance? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. Alex's new blog post "The Future of The Market of Living Together" goes into detail: https://free-cities.org/the-future-of-the-market-of-living-together/
