<i>Glossary of Decentralised Technosocial Systems</i> arose from the need to define terms that - while being relevant to current discussions about power of/in/over digital cultures - remain ill-defined and contested. The definition of the scope, content and
format of the Glossary triggered many questions: <span style="color:black">what is the role and usefulness of glossaries in the study of legal, political, societal implications of internet-based technologies? How is it possible to reconcile diversity of voices
and interdisciplinarity with the need to claim "authority" in specific fields of knowledge? Can glossaries
</span></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Times;color:black" lang="EN-US">carry a political dimension and accelerate (as opposed to slow down) change in discourse?</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> </span></p>

<p class="x_x_MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Times" lang="EN-US">To find possible answers to such questions, we looked at efforts that share some similarities to ours -
<span></span>projects that were inspirational to our initiative, and projects we discovered along the way. On the occasion of the launch of the Glossary, we invite these projects to discuss how they have addressed, solved or simply thought about these and other
questions posed by the fascinating yet problematic task of organizing knowledge. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Times"> </span></p>
