Synopsis
**bolo'bolo** is a 1983 book by **P.M.**, a pseudonym for **Hans Widmer**, in which he outlines a plan for utopia. **Synopsis** The opening of bolo'bolo describes and criticizes the current world, called the Planetary Work Machine, which the work describes as based on domination and has resulted in the despoiling of the natural world. He describes the Machine as decentrally orchestrated by corporations and government (and their representatives) who each independently increase their control over others, quashing resistance and the viability of alternative systems. He advocated the undermining of the system via subversion and construction ("substruction"). It then presents a plan and a future history in which humanity transitions into the bolo system. The remainder of the work describes the theoretical future social order and defines terms. A "bolo" is an intentional community formed of about 500 "ibus", or individual egos. The intentional community is described through its lifestyle ("nima"), hospitality ("sila"), and agrarian self-sufficiency ("kodu"), among other traits. Multiple intentional communities together form a socioeconomic network known as "bolo'bolo". The communities trade with gifts, barter, and, possibly, markets. bolo'bolo's approach is anti-work, anti-state, and was written to be practiced.
