What if we stopped trying to repair an obsolete system and transitioned to a structure of direct social production? RCED is a networked economic architecture that replaces capital accumulation with use-based property and trades GDP for a genuine Index of Good Life.

Architecture of a Use-Based Society

<h3>Towards a Commons-Based Economy: Discovering the RCED v5 Model</h3>Faced with the dual challenge of exploding inequalities and breaching our planet's physical boundaries, traditional economic models seem to have run out of breath. It is from this stark realization that the RCED v5 (Network of Democratic Economic Cells) was born—a groundbreaking macroeconomic model subtitled “From the National Foundation to the Planetary Horizon”, conceptualized by Nadir Felder in June 2026.Far from a mere tax reform proposal, version v5—driven by the application of the "theoretical patch v4.4.3"—operates a profound paradigm shift. It proposes a move away from a capitalist system based on accumulation and after-the-fact redistribution toward a direct social production structure. Within this framework, economic coordination no longer depends on the blind forces of the market or individual profit, but is organized entirely around access to and the preservation of the commons.The Three Pillars of TransformationThe core of this architecture rests on three major conceptual breakthroughs:<ul><li>From Private Property to Usage Property: The model abolishes capitalist private property (defined as the right to exclude and extract financial rent) to replace it with usage property. An asset or infrastructure remains tied to the community or the individual who actually uses it and respects its collective rules.</li><li>From Taxes to Usage Fees at the Source: Traditional redistributive taxation is replaced by a Commons Usage Fee. Users are billed directly at the source for utilizing shared resources (energy, land, digital data), transforming the contribution into a fair condition of access.</li><li>The Golden Rule of Automation: For every point of productivity gained through technological automation, the created value is fully distributed in a transparent manner without monetary creation, according to the immutable equation alpha + beta + gamma + delta = 1. This allocation (split between liberated time, a sovereign wealth fund, sectoral transition, and decarbonization) is arbitrated every year by a Citizen Assembly.</li></ul>An Architecture of Two HorizonsThe model is organized modularly through a stack of 18 interconnected layers (from layer 0 to 17), split into two distinct timeframes:<ol><li>Part I: The Operational Foundation (20-Year Deliverable): This focuses on building local and national resilience. Its priorities include the rapid decarbonization of buildings via a Citizen Transition Service, the deployment of low-tech, high-engineering technologies such as sand batteries for seasonal thermal storage, and a massive reduction in working hours.</li><li>Part II: The Earth Federation Project (Aspirational Horizon): Designed for the ultra-long term, this horizon is activated once the model propagates to a critical mass of countries. It lays the groundwork for a confederal global governance where the atmosphere, the oceans, and even orbital and space exploration are managed as Universal Commons of humanity.</li></ol>Explore the complete model today.

Nadnone: Pioneering AI-Driven Economic Models for a Sustainable Future

What is this document about?The RCED — Réseau de Cellules Économiques Démocratiques (Network of Democratic Economic Cells) — is a proposal for a radical yet pragmatic transformation of the Swiss economic system, designed by Nadir Felder and published under a Creative Commons CC BY 4.0 license. The document is a collaborative working document, partially assisted by AI, and version 5.1 specifically specifies the institutional architecture, particularly Layer 7.The central idea is to build an economy composed of cells (local, cooperative, federated) linked by a transparent accounting system (blockchain) that makes wealth, carbon, and energy visible and steerable. The model is organized into layers, from the local base to the planetary horizon.Paradigm Shifts (Patch v5.1)Three major changes define the current version:<ul><li>From private property to use-based property (Patch v4.4.3): Capitalist private property (the capital title that grants the right to exclude and extract rent) is removed. It is replaced by use-based property: a good is tied to whoever effectively uses it according to the rules of the commons, preventing passive rent extraction.</li><li>From redistributive taxation to the Commons Use Fee (Patch v4.4.3): Instead of collecting taxes after the fact, the model charges at the source for the use of common resources (energy, land, data). The contribution becomes a condition for access to the network.</li><li>From GDP to the Indice de Vie Bonne / Index of Good Life (IVB) (Patch v5.0.3): GDP is relegated to an internal variable. The headline indicator is now the IVB, calculated as the geometric mean of the social foundation and the ecological ceiling, which prevents compensation between the two.</li></ul>The Full Layer Stack (v5.1)The model is organized into 17 layers:<ul><li>0 — Diagnosis: Observation of inequalities.</li><li>1 — Register of uses: Blockchain-based land register for energy, land, and carbon uses.</li><li>2 — Use fee: Direct charging at the source replacing traditional taxation.</li><li>3 — Capitalisation: Citizen sovereign fund investing in the real economy.</li><li>4a/4b — Production / Consumption: Cooperatives and democratic planning.</li><li>5 — Health / Time: Solidarity insurance and reduced work week.</li><li>6 — Coordination: Federated cells, where the market is merely a signal.</li><li>7 — Governance (DSS-PS-EE): 5 subsidiarity levels, 3 separated powers, elected expert colleges.</li><li>8 — Knowledge: Official training and accredited retraining.</li><li>9 — Propagation: 0% investment to create cells elsewhere.</li><li>10 — Time: Work indexation based on automation.</li><li>11 — National commons: Open-access infrastructure (rail, energy, digital) to purge rents.</li><li>12 — Ecological loop: Framework of the 9 planetary boundaries (Protocol 12.A for food, 12.B for plastics).</li><li>13 — Citizen mobilisation: Citizen service, thermal storage (sand), and relocalisation.</li><li>14 — Federated energy cells: Nested energy sharing in a network.</li><li>S.I., 15, 16, 17 — Commons Guard, Defence, Immunity, Verification: Internal security and territorial defence (Part II).</li></ul>Governance: The DSS-PS-EE Model (§ 7 bis)Version 5.1 fully deploys Layer 7 with the DSS-PS-EE model (Swiss Subsidiarity Democracy with Separated Powers and Elected Experts):<ul><li>5 subsidiarity levels: From the commune to the supranational (dormant) level.</li><li>3 separated powers: Legislative (Assemblies), Executive (Collegiate Governments), Judicial (Elected/Sortition judges).</li><li>Elected Expert Colleges: Experts with degrees who are elected by the assembly and are revocable; they decide on technical matters under democratic control.</li><li>Fact/Value Border: A constitutional separation between verifiable questions (experts) and distributive arbitrations (Citizens' Assembly).</li><li>Asymmetric thresholds: High thresholds for fundamental rules, simple majority for transition measures.</li></ul>Gains-Sharing MechanismAnnual productivity gains (from automation) are allocated via a strict rule: Alpha + Beta + Gamma + Delta (+ Epsilon) = 1.<ul><li>Alpha (45%): Reduction of working time.</li><li>Beta (35%): Citizen Sovereign Fund.</li><li>Gamma (10%): Sectoral reallocation and training (Layer 13).</li><li>Delta (10%): Decarbonisation Fund (Layer 12).</li><li>Epsilon: Federal contribution (Part II), active only if the Sovereign Fund surplus exceeds 2% of GDP.</li></ul>Part II — The "Earth Federation" ProjectThis is an aspirational horizon, not deliverable within 20 years, conditioned on the maturity of the previous layers. This project aims to solve global coordination through a cascading confederal architecture: planetary commons (atmosphere, energy, minerals) fund their own redistribution through a dividend, without creating an authoritarian world-state. Security is provided by two levers: exclusion from the commons (non-violent) and a consented interposition corps (never assault troops).Key Indicators (Reference Scenario, Year 20)<ul><li>Indice de Vie Bonne (Good Life Index): 83.5/100.</li><li>Gross National Happiness: 72/100 (a +14 point progression).</li><li>Gini Coefficient: 0.185 (strong reduction).</li><li>Working hours: 28.5 hours/week.</li><li>Net emissions: -68% (Zero net trajectory 2050).</li><li>Sovereign Fund surplus: 19.7% of GDP.</li></ul>How to read this document<ol><li>Hybrid Status: Part I is operational and testable (cantonal pilots). Part II and the defence bodies are horizons for discussion.</li><li>Coherence: This is an ambitious conceptual architecture, not an empirically validated public policy.

How Nadnone's AI-Powered Economic Model Transforms Climate Action

[TARGET] The Problem in One SentenceOur economy rewards those who accumulate and pollute, instead of those who share and preserve.[BUILDING] The Solution: 3 Simple Pillars1) Usage Right"You have the right to use, not to own for exclusion."<ul><li> Today: You can buy 10 apartments, leave them empty, and drive up prices.</li><li> With RCED: You have the right to live in an apartment as long as you use it. If you move out, it becomes available again.</li><li> Result: End of speculation, end of empty housing, end of abusive rents.</li></ul>2) Usage Fee"You pay for what you use, not for what you own."<ul><li> Today: You pay taxes on your salary (complex, unfair, fraudable).</li><li> With RCED: You pay a small fee when you use electricity, water, transport, or internet.</li><li> Result: No more tax fraud, no more complexity, a transparent economy.</li></ul>3) Citizen Sovereign Fund"Productivity gains benefit everyone."Today: If a robot does your work, your boss keeps all the money.With RCED: Gains are automatically distributed:<ul><li>45 -&gt; Work time reduction (28.5h/week instead of 40h)</li><li> 35 -&gt; Common investments (schools, hospitals, renewable energies)</li><li> 10 -&gt; Training and reconversion</li><li> 10 -&gt; Ecological transition</li></ul>Result: Less inequality, more public services, a resilient economy.[CHART] The Success Metric: Good Life Index (GLI)We no longer measure GDP (which rewards overproduction), but an index combining:<ul><li> Social Foundation: Well-being, equality, free time, covered needs</li><li> Ecological Ceiling: Respect for the 9 planetary boundaries (climate, biodiversity, water, soil, etc.)</li><li> Score: 83.5/100 (today: ~0/100)</li></ul>Example: A high-growth variant (GDP +385) gets a GLI of 72.2/100 (because it exceeds the ecological ceiling).RCED penalizes overproduction, not prosperity.[GOVERNMENT] Governance: Who Decides What?DSS-PS-EE Model (Subsidiarity Democracy with Separated Powers and Elected Experts):Golden Rule:<ul><li> Experts -&gt; Decide on facts ("How much CO2 do we emit?").</li><li> Citizens -&gt; Decide on values ("Do we want to reduce emissions by 50% or 80%?").</li><li> Any decision violating the 9 planetary boundaries or usage right is null and void.</li></ul>[LIGHTBULB] The Ultimate Analogy: An Intelligent Co-LivingImagine a co-living space where:<ul data-type="checkmark-bullet-list"><li data-type="checkmark-list-item"> Everyone has access to what they need (food, housing, transport).</li><li data-type="checkmark-list-item"> Each pays according to what they use (not what they own).</li><li data-type="checkmark-list-item"> Tasks are shared equitably (via a common fund).</li><li data-type="checkmark-list-item"> Decisions are made together.</li><li data-type="checkmark-list-item"> We don't waste resources, or we end up without.</li><li data-type="checkmark-list-item">If someone cheats, we cut off their access.</li></ul>RCED is this: an intelligent and sustainable co-living, at the scale of a country.
