Nature of Polyexistentials

In this book we analyze the topic of Intellectual Property Rights(IPR) from a new perspective. The topic of restriction of polyexistentials andWestern IPR are one and the same. Yet, the concept of polyexistentials has notappeared in prior discussions of this topic. This is the very first time thatthe concept and the word "polyexistetials" are being introduced.Knowledge, know-how, uses of know-how, ideas and information are inherentlynon-scarce. They are polyexistentials. Unlike monoexistentials which exist insingular, polyexistentials naturally exist in multiples and are inherently notscarce. What is abundant in nature is being made artificially scarce throughman-made ownership rules called copyright and patents. These ownership rulesthen permit a certain group which usually take the form of corporations toeconomically profit from these unnatural and economically motivated artificialscarcities. The model of polyexistence makes it easy to demonstrate that theconcept of Intellectual Property is invalid. This proof is based on logic thatis rooted in nature of existence and nature of possession and the requirementfor ownership to be in harmony with nature of possession and existence.Having rejected the Western IPR regime as an erroneous model for govenrnance ofpolyexistentials, we introduce the Libre-Halaal model of governance ofpolyexistentials towards facilitating conviviality of tools. We then focus onthe digital world and introduce the The Libre-Halaal By* (ByStar) DigitalEcosystem, as a moral alternative to the existing proprietary American digitalecosystem.Equipped with a multidisciplinary blueprint, we offer our initialimplementation of the ByStar digital ecosystem as a starting point towardsconcrete solutions. Todays's American Internet is mostly a business construct.The current basic model of Internet is rooted in the rise-of-the-middle model ofcorporations exploiting the individual. The engineering architecture of theproprietary internet application services is very central. Proprietary Americancorporations the likes of Google, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple arepositioned in the middle and monitor, control and expolit citizens of the world.The engineering architecture of Libre-Halaal ByStar Digital Ecosystem isdistinctly different. The multidisciplinary blue print that we have provided canbe the basis for de-Americanization, de-IPR-ization and redecentralization ofinternet application services.The existing capitalist model for monoexistentials is generallycorrect, in both philosophical and economic terms. But the extension of themonoexistential capitalist model into the domain of polyexistentials, based onthe Western IPR regime, is a grave mistake. To address this mistake of AmericanCapitalism, we introduce the model of Global Polyexistential Capitalism as anAttribution Based Economy towards correcting the existing IPR rooted OwnershipBased Economy of American Capitalism. Deep understanding of the strategy that weoutline in this book, makes it clear that Polyexistential American Capitalism isvery vulnerable.Our ultimate goal for all of this has been to influencesocietal policies towards adoption of halaal mannerof-existence ofpolyexistentials. We recognize that adoption of such societal policies inAmerica is likely not possible and their adoption in the West is likely verydifficult. Therefore, we focus on Eastern societies in general and Iran andChina in particular. It is only through full rejection of Western IPR regime andits deep roots in Americanism that humanity can be rescued.
