Seasteading

How Floating Nations Will Restore the Environment, Enrich the Poor, Cure the Sick, and Liberate Humanity from Politicians
Book • 2017
In this book, Joe Quirk and Patri Friedman of the Seasteading Institute explain how ocean cities can address various environmental, technological, and civic issues.

They introduce visionaries and pioneers implementing seasteading concepts, envisioning a future with sustainable energy, new farming methods, and communities free from conventional citizenship restrictions.

The book highlights the potential of these floating cities as laboratories for innovation and creativity, and it has garnered support from figures like Peter Thiel.

French Polynesia has already committed to building some of the world's first seasteads in response to growing environmental threats.
