Our Commons: Political Ideas for a New Europe is a collection of essays, case studies and interviews that showcase the wealth of transformative ideas that the commons have to offer. Featuring reflections on the enclosure of knowledge and the monopolisation of the digital sphere, stories about renewable energy cooperatives and community foodwaste initiatives and urgent pleas to see the city as a commons and to treat health as a common good, this book is a political call to arms for all Europeans to embrace the commons and build a new Europe. Our Commons features contributions by David Bollier, Sheila R. Foster, Benjamin Coriat, Silke Helfrich, George Monbiot, Kate Raworth, Trebor Scholz and many others.
