@tiffanyng.bsky.social I enjoyed your article recently "A starter kit for civilization" in MIT Technology Review dated Nov/Dec 2025. It was about Marcin Jakubowski and his Open Source Ecology and the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS).

I spoke to Ben Selwyn about the class relations of value chains, and the role of superpowers in their rise and maintenance

A great teaching resource for anyone teaching GVCs!
🚢How do global supply chains drive labour exploitation, nature destruction and geopolitical tension?

Machines: Global Village Construction Set | Open Source Ecology
The Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) is a modular, DIY, low-cost, high-performance platform that allows for the easy fabrication of the 50 different Industrial Machines that it takes to build a small, sustainable civilization with modern comforts. We’re developing open source industrial machines that can be made at a fraction of commercial costs, and sharing our designs online for free. We are developing a lifesize, scalable, modular LEGO construction set. The GVCS in itself consists of many other Construction Sets – as we build not individual machines, but construction sets of machines.

Really liked this. I'm working on some of the implications of coordination in things like GVCs for understanding where the neo-classical conception fails, and the normative implications of this.

At CEP, I focused on how #trade policy can support sustainable prosperity - from #GVCs for #EnergyTransition to parliamentary roles in trade #governance. I explored how #TradeAgreements can foster international cooperation & balance economic, social, and environmental goals.

Historically, industrial policy focused on creating strong domestic industries. However, recent global disruptions have shifted the focus from economic prosperity to security. Explore how industrial policies and GVCs are evolving in response: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Closing out the issue is the Medellín Group's manifesto on transnational value chains and international law, setting out a research agenda that treats GVCs as amorphous and transnational legal creatures.
