In the last two hundred years, the earth has increasingly become
the private property of a few classes, races, transnational
corporations, and nations. Repeated claims about the "tragedy of
the commons" and the "crisis of capitalism" have done little to
explain this concentration of land, encourage solution-building to
solve resource depletion, or address our current socio-ecological
crisis. The Commons in an Age of Uncertainty presents a new
explanation, vision, and action plan based on the idea of commoning
the land. The book argues that by commoning the land, rather than
privatising it, we can develop the foundation for prosperity
without destructive growth and address both local and global
challenges. Making the land the most fundamental priority of all
commons does not only give hope, it also opens the doors to a new
world in which economy, environment, and society are decolonised
and liberated.
