The Commoner's Catalog for Changemaking was born of a simple
realization: The world we have inherited is no longer working. The
future of the planet and civilization as we know it are threatened,
and the cries heard during the pandemic and Black Lives Matter
protests-"I can't breathe"-continue to echo. By giving us tools for
navigating the transitions ahead, this catalog helps us breathe
more deeply. The Commoner's Catalog for Changemaking explains the
transformational power of social collaboration by showcasing dozens
of pathbreaking projects, books, websites, and activist
initiatives. Commoners seek to prioritize people's needs over
market extraction, steward the Earth, relocalize the economy, and
build new institutions of empowerment. The emerging Commonsverse
can be seen in relocalized food systems and community land
trusts...in racial empowerment through collective action and mutual
aid...and in free and open source software, peer production, and
platform cooperatives. Commoning is helping communities to managing
scarce water supplies, farmers to develop regenerative agriculture,
and artists to reclaim control of their creative lives. Ordinary
people are becoming more self-reliant through timebanking and
collaborative finance, care collectives and gift economies, and
alternative local currencies. The Commoner's Catalog for
Changemaking is an indispensable guide for understanding many
profound social transformations now underway. In 25 thematic
sections, The Commoner's Catalog offers a rare collection of tools
for navigating the transitions ahead and building a new world. It
offers a portrait of the system-change activism that is creating an
economics of sufficiency, a politics of fairness, and a culture of
belonging.
