The case studies illustrate that due to the nature and/or main causes of the global crisis in the different contexts in which it has emerged,it is clearly difficult to transnationally replicate an existing model into another context.One key question is what is the specific need that the application of a new complementary value creation system would fulfill? In the developed contexts,such as with cases of WIR in Switzerland and Bitcoin demonstrate a need for economic benefit,that is permitted independently of any individual or organization and this is key in understanding how to approach,manage and implement any one of these systems into the existing social order.Sardex in Italy and Torekes in Belgium demonstrate a need for enhancing collaboration,in some cases through the introduction of meritocracy and using existing local resources.In the case of Sardex,it also illustrates the possibility to build communities without money where services offered within the network are the currenaes themselves that serve the function of validating and numerating exchanged values.This again gives light to a model in which such systems could be possible and show how the internal interactions could take place.WAT case in Japan demonstrates a need for local and/or individual empowerment and this is established through the acceptance and arculation of physical tickets,that are evidences of trust and honor that members adopt as their own currency,and thus automatically become participants in this arcuit of trust.These cases bring us to the assumption that the underlying mechanisms of complementary currency systems are the same as with fiat currencies that intend to solve economic problems but are limited in their functionalities.Their lack of access to individuals in need of economic support does not permit the empowering of self—organizing communities,increasing overall economic and social stability as community currencies do.
