Yochai Benkler is a professor of law and an author of The Wealth of Networks and The Penguin and the Leviathan. Benkler coined the term "common's based peer production" to describe collaborative efforts in the networked information economy. The term was first described in the paper Linux and the Nature of the Firm, published in 2002.

Yonejji Masuda predated that thought in 1979 with his book the Information Sociery as Post Industrial Sociary in which he identified the"Information voluntary community".[1]
