Building on a strong theoretical foundation and featuring 15 original case studies from Europe and the Americas, the chapters explore the challenges and possibilities of implementing common-based strategies. A unique and vital resource, this book is essential for scholars and activists interested in the democratic road to socialism as an alternative to capitalism.
Iolanda Bianchi is an urban and political sociologist. Her research focuses on the interplay between public and collective action at the urban scale and examines how this interplay generates governance, policy and social change to achieve more just, equitable and democratic cities. She currently holds a Ramón y Cajal Research Fellowship at the University of Barcelona. Bertie Russell is a senior research fellow at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology (ICTA), Universidad Autonoma de Barcelona. His work focuses on ecosocial transition, alternative organisation and the politics of the common. He is co-director of Abundance, promoting public-common strategies to democratise the economy and support a just ecological transition.
