Here is a list regarding some types of economies and governments theories for your consideration:
Open Source Governance: Theory about decision making and policies be available to all, by way of a wiki document. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_politics
Biophysical Economics: Theory that directly connects resources with the economy, using laws of thermodynamics in several cases to try to explain their action. http://www.eoearth.org/article/Biophysical_economics
Technocracy: Possessing a theory where there is no currency, thus replaced by energy calculations, it works through a system of absolute evenness of resources among individuals, ensures that there is no inefficiency in the use of resources. Is not a democratic system, in this type of government the politicians and voting are excluded, scientists in turn make the executive decisions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9ps5vJrIxM
