Réalisé dans le cadre du projet Remix biens communs, le court-métrage donne la parole à une dizaine d'intervenants-tes montréalais qui oeuvrent à protéger les cours d'eau entourant la métropole et ses environs et à en favoriser l'accès pour les citoyens-nes. Bâtie sur une île, la Ville de Montréal a au cours de son histoire entretenu des liens étroits avec l'eau. Toutefois, les processus d'urbanisation et d'industrialisation qu'a connus la métropole au cours du dernier siècle ont graduellement contribué à éloigner la population de cette ressource primordiale. C'est dans un désir de réappropriation de l'eau en tant que bien commun que Communautique a rassemblé plusieurs acteurs-trices montréalais-es de la préservation et de la valorisation de cette précieuse ressource naturelle lors d'un Déjeuner des communs à l'automne 2012. Au cœur de cette rencontre dominait une question aux multiples réponses : Comment pouvons-nous nous réapproprier le fleuve Saint-Laurent comme bien commun ? Que ce soit par l'imaginaire d'une eau urbaine traversant la ville pour l'écrivain Lamberto Tassinari, par l'engagement citoyen pour la Fondation Rivières et ses représentants Roy Dupuis et Alain Saladzius, ou par l'éducation et l'apprentissage que prône le capitaine Simon Paquin sur son navire-école ÉcoMaris, « Ô Saint-Laurent : une histoire d'eau et d'appartenance » propose non seulement une réflexion sur l'eau en tant que bien commun, mais des pistes de solutions pour envisager son appropriation collective. ».

The idea was to do a light, self editable and easy to use collection of posters. It is dedicated to places that welcome an audience that is not particularly sensitive to the commons. We were thinking for example of community centers, libraries or schools. After a few exchanges, notably around the game <a href="http://commonspoly.cc/">Commonspoly</a>, which had been prototyped by <a href="http://www.zemos98.org/">ZEMOS98</a> a few months before during a European meeting, we produced an exhibition of 12 posters that explain and illustrate the commons.</p></br><figure style="width: 1240px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://wiki.remixthecommons.org/images/ExpoLesCommunsV0_panneau01.png" width="1240" height="1753" alt=" Expo Les communs page1 CC-BY-SA." class="size-medium" /><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><br /></br>Expo Les communs page1 CC-BY-SA.</figcaption></figure></br><p>The exhibition proposes to discover the common through their definition and concrete illustration.

The team that put together the proposals is led by Michel Bauwens from the </i><a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/"><i>Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives</i></a><i>. What is the background to this plan, and how likely is it that it will bear fruit?  With the hope of finding out I spoke recently to Bauwens.</i></div></br><div>One interesting phenomenon to emerge from the Internet has been the growth of free and open movements, including free and open source software, open politics, open government, open data, citizen journalism, creative commons, open science, open educational resources (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_educational_resources">OER</a>), open access etc.</div></br><div>While these movements often set themselves fairly limited objectives (e.g. “<a href="http://cogprints.org/1702/">freeing the refereed literature</a>”) some network theorists maintain that the larger phenomenon they represent has the potential not just to replace traditional closed and proprietary practices with more open and transparent approaches, and not just to subordinate narrow commercial interests to the greater needs of communities and larger society but, since the network enables ordinary citizens to collaborate together on large meaningful projects in a distributed way (and absent traditional hierarchical organisations), it could have a significant impact on the way in which societies and economies organise themselves.</div></br><div>In his influential book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wealth_of_Networks"><i>The Wealth of Networks</i></a>, for instance, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yochai_Benkler">Yochai Benkler</a> identifies and describes a new form of production that he sees emerging on the Internet — what he calls “<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commons-based_peer_production">commons-based peer production</a>”. This, he says, is creating a new <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/macloo/networked-information-economy-benkler">Networked Information Economy</a>.</div></br><div>Former librarian and Belgian network theorist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Bauwens">Michel Bauwens</a> goes so far as to say that by enabling peer-to-peer (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_peer-to-peer_processes">P2P</a>) collaboration, the Internet has created a new model for the future development of human society. In addition to peer production, he <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2006/09/p2p-blueprint-for-future.html">explained to me in 2006</a>, the network also encourages the creation of peer property (i.e. commonly owned property), and peer governance (governance based on civil society rather than representative democracy).</div></br><div>Moreover, what is striking about peer production is that it emerges and operates outside traditional power structures and market systems. And when those operating in this domain seek funding they increasingly turn not to the established banking system, but to new P2P practices like crowdfunding and social lending.</div></br><div>When in 2006 I asked Bauwens what the new world he envisages would look like in practice he replied, “I see a P2P civilisation that would have to be post-capitalist, in the sense that human survival cannot co-exist with a system that destroys the biosphere; but it will nevertheless have a thriving marketplace. At the core of such a society — where immaterial production is the primary form — would be the production of value through non-reciprocal peer production, most likely supported through a basic income.”</div></br><h2>Unrealistic and utopian?</h2></br><div> So convinced was he of the potential of P2P that in 2005 Bauwens created the <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/">Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives</a>. The goal: to “research, document and promote peer-to-peer principles”</div></br><div>Critics dismiss Bauwens’ ideas as unrealistic and utopian, and indeed in the eight years since I first spoke with him much has happened that might seem to support the sceptics. Rather than being discredited by the 2008 financial crisis, for instance, traditional markets and neoliberalism have tightened their grip on societies, in all parts of the world.</div></br><div>At the same time, the democratic potential and openness Bauwens sees as characteristic of the network is being eroded in a number of ways. While social networking platforms like Facebook enable the kind of sharing and collaboration Bauwens sees lying at the heart of a P2P society, for instance, there is a growing sense that these services are in fact exploitative, not least because the significant value created by the users of these services is being monetised not for the benefit of the users themselves, but for the exclusive benefit of the large corporations that own them.</div></br><div>We have also seen a huge growth in proprietary mobile devices, along with the flood of apps needed to run on them — a development that caused <i>Wired’s</i> former editor-in-chief <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Anderson_%28writer%29">Chris Anderson</a> to <a href="http://www.wired.com/2010/08/ff_webrip">conclude</a> that we are witnessing a dramatic move “from the wide-open Web to semi closed platforms”. And this new paradigm, he added, simply “reflects the inevitable course of capitalism”.</div></br><div>In other words, rather than challenging or side-lining the traditional market and neoliberalism, the network seems destined to be appropriated by it — a likelihood that for many was underlined by the recent <a href="http://www.latimes.com/business/hiltzik/la-fi-mh-net-neutrality-20140114-story.html#page=1">striking down</a> of the US net neutrality regulations.</div></br><div>It would also appear that some of the open movements are gradually being appropriated and/or subverted by commercial interests (e.g. the <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/the-state-of-open-access.html">open access</a> and open educational resources movements).</div></br><div>While conceding that a capitalist version of P2P has begun to emerge, Bauwens argues that this simply makes it all the more important to support and promote social forms of P2P. And here, he suggests, the signs are positive, with the number of free and open movements continuing to grow and the P2P model bleeding out of the world of “immaterial production” to encompass material production too — e.g. with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_design">open design</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_hardware">open hardware</a> movements, a development encouraged by the growing use of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3d_printing">3D printers</a>.</div></br><div>Bauwens also points to a growth in mutualisation, and the emergence of new practices based around the sharing of physical resources and equipment.</div></br><div>Interestingly, these latter developments are often less visible than one might expect because much of what is happening in this area appears to be taking place outside the view of mainstream media in the global north.</div></br><div>Finally, says Bauwens, the P2P movement, or commoning (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bollier">as some prefer to call it</a>), is becoming increasingly politicised. Amongst other things, this has seen the rise of new political parties like the various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party">Pirate Parties</a>.</div></br><div>Above all, Bauwens believes that the long-term success of P2P is assured because its philosophy and practices are far more sustainable than the current market-based system. “Today, we consider nature infinite and we believe that infinite resources should be made scarce in order to protect monopolistic players,” he says below. “Tomorrow, we need to consider nature as a finite resource, and we should respect the abundance of nature and the human spirit.”</div></br><h2>Periphery to mainstream</h2></br><div>And as the need for sustainability becomes ever more apparent, more people will doubtless want to listen to what Bauwens has to say. Indeed, what better sign that P2P could be about to move from the periphery to the mainstream than an invitation Bauwens received last year from three Ecuadorian governmental institutions, who asked him to lead a team tasked with coming up with proposals for transitioning the country to a society based on free and open knowledge.</div></br><div>The organisation overseeing the project is the FLOK Society (free, libre, open knowledge). As “commoner” <a href="http://bollier.org/about">David Bollier</a> <a href="http://bollier.org/blog/bauwens-joins-ecuador-planning-commons-based-peer-production-economy">explained</a> when the project was announced, Bauwens’ team was asked to look at many interrelated themes, “including open education; open innovation and science; ‘arts and meaning-making activities’; open design commons; distributed manufacturing; and sustainable agriculture; and open machining.”</div></br><div>Bollier added, “The research will also explore enabling legal and institutional frameworks to support open productive capacities; new sorts of open technical infrastructures and systems for privacy, security, data ownership and digital rights; and ways to mutualise the physical infrastructures of collective life and promote collaborative consumption.”</div></br><div>In other words, said Bollier, Ecuador “does not simply assume — as the ‘developed world’ does — that more iPhones and microwave ovens will bring about prosperity, modernity and happiness.”</div></br><div>Rather it is looking for sustainable solutions that foster “social and territorial equality, cohesion, and integration with diversity.”</div></br><div>The upshot: In April Bauwens’ team published a series of <a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Pl">proposals</a> intended to transition Ecuador to what he calls a sustainable civic P2P economy. And these proposals will be discussed at a summit to be held this week in the capital of Ecuador (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quito">Quito</a>).</div></br><div>“As you can see from our proposals, we aim for a simultaneous transformation of civil society, the market and public authorities,” says Bauwens. “And we do this without inventing or imposing utopias, but by extending the working prototypes from the commoners and peer producers themselves.”</div></br><div>But Bauwens knows that Rome wasn’t built in a day, and he realises that he has taken on a huge task, one fraught with difficulties. Even the process of putting the proposals together has presented him and his team with considerable challenges. Shortly after they arrived in Ecuador, for instance, they were told that the project had been defunded (funding that was fortunately later reinstated). And for the moment it remains unclear whether many (or any) of the FLOK proposals will ever see the light of day.</div></br><div>Bauwens is nevertheless upbeat. Whatever the outcome in Ecuador, he says, an important first stab has been made at creating a template for transitioning a nation state from today’s broken model to a post-capitalist social knowledge society.</div></br><div>“What we have now that we didn’t have before, regardless of implementation in Ecuador, is the first global commons-oriented transition plan, and several concrete legislative proposals,” he says. “They are far from perfect, but they will be a reference that other locales, cities, (bio)regions and states will be able to make their own adapted versions of it.”</div></br><div>In the Q&A below Bauwens discusses the project in more detail, including the background to it, and the challenges that he and the FLOK Society have faced.</div></br><h2>The interview begins</h2></br><div><b><i>RP:  We last spoke in 2006 when you discussed your ideas on a P2P (peer-to-peer) society (which I think </i></b><a href="http://www.bollier.org/"><b><i>David Bollier</i></b></a><b><i> refers to as “commoning”). Briefly, what has been learned since then about the opportunities and challenges of trying to create a P2P society, and how have your thoughts on P2P changed/developed as a result?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> At the time, P2P dynamics were mostly visible in the process of “immaterial production”, i.e. productive communities that created commons of knowledge and code. The trend has since embraced material production itself, through <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_design">open design</a> that is linked to the production of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_hardware">open hardware</a> machinery.</div></br><div>Another trend is the mutualisation of physical resources. We’ve seen on the one hand an explosion in the mutualisation of open workspaces (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace">hackerspaces</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_lab">fab labs</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coworking">co-working</a>) and the explosion of the so-called sharing economy and collaborative consumption.</div></br><div>This is of course linked to the emergence of distributed practices and technologies for finance (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crowdfunding">crowd funding</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_lending">social lending</a>); and for machinery itself (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3d_printing">3D printing</a> and other forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_manufacturing">distributed manufacturing</a>). Hence the emergence and growth of P2P dynamics is now clearly linked to the “distribution of everything”.</div></br><div>There is today no place we go where social P2P initiatives are not developing and not exponentially growing. P2P is now a social fact.</div></br><div>Since the crisis of 2008, we are also seeing much more clearly the political and economic dimension of P2P. There is now both a clearly capitalist P2P sector (renting and working for free is now called sharing, which is putting downward pressure on income levels) and a clearly social one.  First of all, the generalised crisis of our economic system has pushed more people to search for such practical alternatives. Second, most P2P dynamics are clearly controlled by economic forces, i.e. the new “netarchical” (hierarchy of the network) platforms.</div></br><div>Finally, we see the increasing politicisation of P2P, with the emergence of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party">Pirate Parties</a>, network parties (Partido X in Spain) etc.</div></br><div>We have now to decide more clearly than before whether we want more autonomous peer production, i.e. making sure that the domination of the free social logic of permissionless aggregation is directly linked to the capacity to generate self-managed livelihoods, or, if we are happy with a system in which this value creation is controlled and exploited by platform owners and other intermediaries.</div></br><div>The result of all of this is that my own thoughts are now more directly political. We have developed concrete proposals and strategies to create P2P-based counter-economies that are de-linked from the accumulation of capital, but focused on cooperative accumulation and the autonomy of commons production.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: Indeed and last year you were </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/bauwens-joins-ecuador-planning-commons-based-peer-production-economy"><b><i>asked to lead a team</i></b></a><b><i> to come up with proposals to “remake the roots of Ecuador’s economy, setting off a transition into a society of free and open knowledge”. As I understand it, this would be based on the principles of open networks, peer production and commoning. Can you say something about the project and what you hope it will lead to? Has the Ecuadoran government itself commissioned you, or a government or non-government agency in Ecuador? </i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> The project, called <a href="http://floksociety.org/">FLOKSociety.org</a>, was commissioned by three Ecuadorian governmental institutions, i.e. the <a href="http://www.conocimiento.gob.ec/">Coordinating Ministry of Knowledge and Human Talent</a>, the <a href="http://www.senescyt.gob.ec/web/guest">SENESCYT</a> (Secretaría Nacional de Educación Superior, Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación) and the <a href="http://iaen.edu.ec/">IAEN</a> (Instituto de Altos Estudios del Estado).</div></br><div>The legitimacy and logic of the project comes from the <a href="http://www.unosd.org/content/documents/96National%20Plan%20for%20Good%20Living%20Ecuador.pdf">National Plan of Ecuador</a>, which is centred around the concept of Good Living (<a href="http://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/blog/buen-vivir-philosophy-south-america-eduardo-gudynas">Buen Vivir</a>), which is a non-reductionist, non-exclusive material way to look at the economy and social life, inspired by the traditional values of the indigenous people of the Andes. The aim of FLOK is to add “Good Knowledge” as an enabler and facilitator of the good life.</div></br><div>The important point to make is that it is impossible for countries and people that are still in neo-colonial dependencies to evolve to more fair societies without access to shareable knowledge. And this knowledge, expressed in diverse commons that correspond to the different domains of social life (education, science, agriculture, industry), cannot itself thrive without also looking at both the material and immaterial conditions that will enable their creation and expansion.</div></br><h2>FLOK summit</h2></br><div><b><i>RP: To this end you have put together a transition plan. This includes </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/ecuador%E2%80%99s-pathbreaking-plan-commons-based-peer-production-update"><b><i>a series of proposals</i></b></a><b><i> (available </i></b><a href="https://floksociety.co-ment.com/text/"><b><i>here</i></b></a><b><i>), and a main report (</i></b><a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan"><b><i>here</i></b></a><b><i>). I assume your plan might or might not be taken up by Ecuador. What is the procedure for taking it forward, and how optimistic are you that Ecuador will embark on the transition you envisage?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> The transition plan provides a framework for moving from an economy founded on what we call “cognitive” and “netarchical” capitalism (based respectively on the exploitation through IP rents or social media platforms) to a “mature P2P-based civic economy”.</div></br><div>The logic here is that the dominant economic forms today are characterised by a value crisis, one in which value is extracted but it doesn’t flow back to the creators of the value. The idea is to transition to an economy in which this value feedback loop is restored.</div></br><div>So about fifteen of our policy proposals apply this general idea to specific domains, and suggest how open knowledge commons can be created and expanded in these particular areas.</div></br><div>We published these proposals on April 1<sup>st</sup> in <a href="http://www.co-ment.com/">co-ment</a>, an open source software that allows people to comment on specific concepts, phrases or paragraphs.</div></br><div>This week (May 27<sup>th</sup> to 30<sup>th</sup>) the crucial <a href="http://cumbredelbuenconocer.ec/">FLOK summit</a> is taking place to discuss the proposals. This will bring together government institutions, social movement advocates, and experts, from both Ecuador and abroad.</div></br><div>The idea is to devote three days to reaching a consensus amongst these different groups, and then try and get agreement with the governmental institutions able to carry out the proposals.</div></br><div>So there will be two filters: the summit itself, and then the subsequent follow-up, which will clearly face opposition from different interests.</div></br><div>This is not an easy project, since it is not possible to achieve all this by decree.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: Earlier this year you made a series of </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/flok-society-vision-post-capitalist-economy"><b><i>videos</i></b></a><b><i> discussing the issues arising from what you are trying to do —  which is essentially to create “a post-capitalist social knowledge society”, or “open commons-based knowledge society”. In one video you discuss three different value regimes, and I note you referred to these in your last answer — i.e. cognitive capitalism, netarchical capitalism and a civic P2P economy. Can you say a little more about how these three different regimes differ and why in your view P2P is a better approach than the other two?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> I define cognitive capitalism as a regime in which value is generated through a combination of rent extraction from the control of intellectual property and the control of global production networks, and expressed in terms of monetisation.</div></br><div>What we have learned is that the democratisation of networks, which also provides a new means of production and value distribution, means that this type of value extraction is harder and harder to achieve, and it can only be maintained either by increased legal suppression (which erodes legitimacy) and outright technological sabotage (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management">DRM</a>). Both of these strategies are not sustainable in the long term.</div></br><div>What we have also learned is that the network has caused a new model to emerge, one adapted to the P2P age, and which I call netarchical capitalism, i.e. “the hierarchy of the network”. In this model, we see the direct exploitation of human cooperation by means of proprietary platforms that both enable and exploit human cooperation. Crucially, while their value is derived from our communication, sharing and cooperation (an empty platform has no value), and on the use value that we are exponentially creating (Google, Facebook don’t produce the content, we do), the exchange value is exclusively extracted by the platform owners. This is unsustainable because it is easy to see that a regime in which the creators of the value get no income at all from their creation is not workable in the long; and so it poses problems for capitalism. After all, who is going to buy goods if they have no income?</div></br><div>So the key issue is: how do we recreate the value loop between creation, distribution, and income? The answer for me is the creation of a mature P2P civic economy that combines open contributory communities, ethical entrepreneurial coalitions able to create livelihoods for the commoners, and for-benefit institutions that can “enable and empower the infrastructure of cooperation”.</div></br><div>Think of the core model of our economy as the Linux economy writ large, but one in which the enterprises are actually in the hands of the value creators themselves. Imagine this micro-economic model on the macro scale of a whole society. Civil society becomes a series of commonses with citizens as contributors; the shareholding market becomes an ethical stakeholder marketplace; and the state becomes a partner state, which “enables and empowers social production” through the commonication of public services and public-commons partnerships.</div></br><h2>Challenges and distrust</h2></br><div><b><i>RP: As you indicated earlier, it is not an easy project that you have embarked on in Ecuador, particularly as it is an attempt to intervene at the level of a nation state. Gordon Cook has </i></b><a href="http://www.cookreport.com/newsletter-sp-542240406/current-issues/287-cook-report-for-may-june-2014"><b><i>said</i></b></a><b><i> of the project: “it barely got off the ground before it began to crash into some of the anticipated obstacles.” Can you say something about these obstacles and how you have been overcoming them?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> It is true that the project started with quite negative auspices. It became the victim of internal factional struggles within the government, for instance, and was even defunded for a time after we arrived; the institutions failed to pay our wages for nearly three months, which was a serious issue for the kind of precarious scholar-activists that make up the research team.</div></br><div>However, in March (when one of the sides in the dispute lost, i.e. the initial sponsor <a href="http://www.elciudadano.gob.ec/new-left-review-se-presento-en-ecuador/">Carlos Prieto</a>, rector of the IAEN), we got renewed commitment from the other two institutions. Since then political support has increased, and the summit is about to get underway.</div></br><div>As for Gordon, he became a victim of what we will politely call a series of misinterpreted engagements for the funding of his participation, and it is entirely understandable that he has become critical of the process.</div></br><div>The truth is that the project was hugely contradictory in many different ways, but this is the reality of the political world everywhere, not just in Ecuador.</div></br><div>Indeed, the Ecuadorian government is itself engaged in sometimes contradictory policies and is perceived by civil society to have abandoned many of the early ideas of the civic movement that brought it to power. So, in our attempts at broader participation we have been stifled by the distrust many civic activists have for the government, and the sincerity of our project has been doubted.</div></br><div>Additionally, social P2P dynamics, which of course exist as in many other countries, are not particularly developed in their modern, digitally empowered forms in Ecuador. It has also not helped that the management of the project has been such that the research team has not been able to directly connect with the political leaders in order to test their real engagement. This has been hugely frustrating.</div></br><div>On the positive side, we have been entirely free to conduct our research and formulate our proposals, and it is hard not to believe that the level of funding the project has received reflects a certain degree of commitment.</div></br><div>So the summit is back on track, and we have received renewed commitments. Clearly, however, the proof of the pudding will be in the summit and its aftermath.</div></br><div></div></br><div>Whatever the eventual outcome, it has always been my conviction that the formulation of the first ever integrated Commons Transition Plan (which your readers will find <a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan">here</a>) legitimised by a nation-state, takes the P2P and commons movement to a higher geopolitical plane. As such, it can be seen as part of the global maturation of the P2P/commons approach, even if it turns out not to work entirely in Ecuador itself.<b><i></i></b></div></br><div><b><i>RP: I believe that one of the issues that has arisen in putting together the FLOK proposals is that Ecuadorians who live in rural areas are concerned that a system based on sharing could see their traditional knowledge appropriated by private interests. Can you say something about this fear and how you believe your plan can address such concerns?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> As you are aware, traditional communities have suffered from systematic <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/biopiracy">biopiracy</a> over the last few decades, with western scientists studying their botanical knowledge, extracting patentable scientific results from it, and then commercialising it in the West.</div></br><div>So fully shareable licenses like the GPL would keep the knowledge in a commons, but would still allow full commercialisation without material benefits flowing back to Ecuador. So what we are proposing is a discussion about a new type of licensing, which we call <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/Peer_Production_License">Commons-Based Reciprocity Licensing</a>. This idea was first pioneered with the Peer Production License as conceived by <a href="http://www.dmytri.info/">Dmytri Kleiner</a>.</div></br><div>Such licences would be designed for a particular usage, say biodiversity research in a series of traditional communities. It allows for free sharing non-commercially, commercial use by not-for-profit entities, and even caters for for-profit entities who contribute back. Importantly, it creates a frontier for for-profits who do not contribute back, and asks them to pay.</div></br><div>What is key here is not just the potential financial flow, but to introduce the principle of reciprocity in the marketplace, thereby creating an ethical economy. The idea is that traditional communities can create their own ethical vehicles, and create an economy from which they can also benefit, and under their control.</div></br><div>This concept is beginning to get attention from open machining communities. However, the debate in Ecuador is only starting. Paradoxically, traditional communities are today either looking for traditional IP protection, which doesn’t really work for them, or for no-sharing options.</div></br><div>So we really need to develop intermediary ethical solutions for them that can benefit them while also putting them in the driving seat.</div></br><h2>Fundamental reversal of our civilisation</h2></br><h2></h2></br><div><b><i>RP: In today’s global economy, where practically everyone and everything seems to be interconnected and subject to the rules of neoliberalism and the market, is it really possible for a country like Ecuador to go off in such a different direction on its own? </i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> A full transition is indeed probably a global affair, but the micro-transitions need to happen at the grassroots, and a progressive government would be able to create exemplary policies and projects that show the way.</div></br><div>Ecuador is in a precarious neo-colonial predicament and subject to the pressures of the global market and the internal social groups that are aligned with it. There are clear signs that since 2010 the Ecuadorian government has moved away from the original radical ideas expressed in the Constitution and the National Plan, as we hear from nearly every single civic movement that we’ve spoken with.</div></br><div>The move for a social knowledge economy is of strategic importance to de-colonialise Ecuador but this doesn’t mean it will actually happen. However, the progressive forces have not disappeared entirely from the government institutions.</div></br><div>As such, it is really difficult to predict how successful this project will be. But as I say, given the investment the government has made in the process we believe there will be some progress. My personal view is that the combination of our political and theoretical achievements, and the existence of the policy papers, means that even with moderate progress in the laws and on the ground, we can be happy that we will have made a difference.</div></br><div>So most likely the local situation will turn out to be a hybrid mix of acceptance and refusal of our proposals, and most certainly the situation is not mature enough to accept the underlying logic of our Commons Transition Plan <i>in toto</i>.</div></br><div>In other words, the publication and the dialogue about the plan itself, and some concrete actions, legislative frameworks, and pilot projects, are the best we can hope for. What this will do is give real legitimacy to our approach and move the commons transition to the geo-political stage. Can we hope for more?</div></br><div>Personally, I believe that even if only 20% of our proposals are retained for action, I think we can consider it a relative success. This is the very first time such an even partial transition will have happened at the scale of the nation and, as I see it, it gives legitimacy to a whole new set of ideas about societal transition. So I believe it is worthy of our engagement.</div></br><div>We have to accept that the realities of power politics are incompatible with the expectations of a clean process for such a fundamental policy change. But we hope that some essential proposals of the project will make a difference, both for the people of Ecuador and all those that are watching the project.</div></br><div>For the future though, I have to say I seriously question the idea of trying to “hack a society” which was the initial philosophy of the project and of the people who hired us. You can’t hack a society, since a society is not an executable program. Political change needs a social and political basis, and it was very weak from the start in this case.</div></br><div>This is why I believe that future projects should first focus on the lower levels of political organisation, such as cities and regions, where politics is closer to the needs of the population. History though, is always full of surprises, and bold gambles can yield results. So FLOK may yet surprise the sceptics.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: If Ecuador did adopt your plan (or a significant part of it), what in your view would be the implications, for Ecuador, for other countries, and for the various free and open movements? What would be the implications if none of it were adopted?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> As I say, at this stage I see only the possibility of a few legal advances and some pilot projects as the best case scenario. These, however, would be important seeds for Ecuador, and would give extra credibility to our effort.</div></br><div>I realise it may surprise you to hear me say it, but I don’t see this as crucial. I say this because, we already have thousands of projects in the world that are engaged in peer production and commons transitions, and this deep trend is not going to change. The efforts to change the social and economic logic will go on with or without Ecuador.</div></br><div>As I noted, what we have now that we didn’t have before, regardless of implementation in Ecuador, is the first global commons-oriented transition plan, and several concrete legislative proposals. They are far from perfect, but they will be a reference that other locales, cities, (bio)regions and states will be able to make their own adapted versions of it.</div></br><div>In the meantime, we have to continue the grassroots transformation and rebuild commons-oriented coalitions at every level, local, regional, national, global. This will take time, but since infinite growth is not possible in a finite economy, some type of transition is inevitable. Let’s just hope it will be for the benefit of the commoners and the majority of the world population.</div></br><div>Essentially, we need to build the seed forms of the new counter-economy, and the social movement that can defend, facilitate and expand it. Every political and policy expression of this is a bonus.</div></br><div>As for the endgame, you guessed correctly. What distinguishes the effort of the P2P Foundation, and many of the FLOK researchers, is that we’re not just in the business of adding some commons and P2P dynamics to the existing capitalist framework, but aiming at a profound “phase transition”.</div></br><div>To work for a sustainable society and economy is absolutely crucial for the future of humanity, and while we respect the freedoms of people to engage in market dynamics for the allocation of rival goods, we cannot afford a system of infinite growth and scarcity engineering, which is what capitalism is.</div></br><div>In other words, today, we consider nature infinite and we believe that infinite resources should be made scarce in order to protect monopolistic players; tomorrow, we need to consider nature as a finite resource, and we should respect the abundance of nature and the human spirit.</div></br><div>So our endgame is to achieve that fundamental reversal of our civilisation, nothing less. As you can see from our proposals, we aim for a simultaneous transformation of civil society, the market and public authorities. And we do this without inventing or imposing utopias, but by extending the working prototypes from the commoners and peer producers themselves.</div></br><p><b><i>RP: Thanks for speaking with me.

Le résultat reflète la volonté de renouvellement à la fois des formes et des contenus de l’action, mais laisse sans réponse, au moins pour l’instant, les interrogations sur la nature d’un mouvement citoyen mondial si c’en est un, et sur la nature du processus des deux années de travail qui s’engagent à la suite de cette conférence. </p></br><p>Alors comment l’idée des communs pourrait-elle nourrir cette démarche ? Au-delà du processus d’écriture, le contenu du texte est assez général et plutôt généreux. Les communs y sont considérés comme des ressources à gérer. Le texte appelle à revendiquer les communs « reclaim, protect and nurture our commons », et à gérer les ressources comme des « propriétés communes » (the earth’s natural environment, ecosystems and knowledge are common property, and should be managed for the common good). Il appelle au respect de ces ressources mais ignore la dimension participative des communs.

L’un des rôles des ONG et des CSO ne devrait-il pas être de prendre en compte et accompagner la politisation de la vie quotidienne dans le domaine de la santé, de l’alimentation, de l’éducation, du travail, …. etc, en les inscrivant dans la perspective des biens communs ? Comment faire cela à une échelle massive ? Sans que cela exclue la conduite de campagnes d’action sur des objectifs stratégiques à l’échelle régionale ou mondiale, par les organisations qui composent l’infrastructure de la société civile, il s’agit de renouveler et d’articuler ce qu’en France on appelle l’éducation populaire en s’appuyant sur les pratiques sociales de voisinage et celles médiatisées par les réseaux informatiques. Une telle dynamique permettrait que chacun s’inscrive dans une perspective plus large et de donner sens pour chacun à l’agenda international. L’enjeu est donc de construire des ponts avec les multiples communautés d’appartenance, non pas pour leur offrir le leadership des ONG ou des mouvements, mais pour reconnaître et légitimer leurs leaderships aux différents échelles d’exercice du pouvoir (du local au mondial). </p></br><p>A entendre les participants à la conférence de Johannesbourg, on dirait qu’il faut en passer aussi par la (re)découverte des communs au sein même des organisations (ce qui fait projet commun), quelque soit leur taille ou leur objet pour les refonder.

In particular, more than 10 billion Euros have been released in just a few months for vaccine research. Public investment and collective risk should go hand in hand with full transparency in the use of funds and research results. But the reality is very different.</p></blockquote></br><p>In normal times State support to medical research that takes place via funding of research programmes and public research institutions, partnerships with private firms, tax credits and of course, the purchase or reimbursement of health products, generally goes unnoticed. The billions being spent currently on for vaccine for Covid19 gives an unusually high-profile to the massive and dazzling involvement of public authorities in this medical research. This therefore justifies the common sense view that any effective vaccines that are developed should be considered and treated as common goods, i.e. an essential resource developed through a collective effort, whose production and access should be organised and governed in a transparent and collective manner.</p></br><p>However, the opacity which usually prevails in the pharmaceutical economy and the control by a few actors, is still in place. On the one hand, countries with more resources are seeking to monopolise the first (and best) future vaccines through bilateral contracts with firms: the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, etc. have signed agreements with AstraZeneca, BioNTech and Pfizer, Novavax, Moderna, GSK, Johnson & Johnson, etc. They wish to cover themselves politically by securing access to possible vaccines for part of their population, but clearly do not feel more accountable than that for the use of public resources. They transfer massive amounts of public money to industry while leaving the corporations with property rights over future products, and keeping their people unaware of any of the details and the conditions of the use of the billions.</p></br><p>The big pharmaceutical companies, on the other hand, are proving to be very bold and are using the situation to push their lobbying agenda forward. In addition to colossal public funding for Research & Development (R&D) they require the advance purchase of large quantities of the potential vaccines that will be developed. They also demand streamlined product registration systems that exempt them from providing all the data for efficacy and safety usually required, and at the same time they wish to be relieved of responsibility in the event of side effects and even be compensated by governments. Meanwhile they claim the need for confidentiality of contracts, clinical trial results, manufacturing costs and pricing structures for future vaccines – all in the name of business secrecy.</p></br><p>The firms want to take the risk out of their actions as much as possible while still ensuring their profits. The public in contrast should assume the risks, both financial and health-related. The public finances and supplies hospitals, medical staff and volunteers by the hundreds of thousands throughout the world1. The public invests its resources without any guarantee of effectiveness or protection from dangerous side effects, or even any control over effectiveness or possibilities of dangerous side effects (since the requirements of the drug agencies are being revised downwards. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has led the way2 and the European Medical Agency (EMA) seems determined to do the same). The public to which we all belong does not have the capacity to appreciate what prices should be – since it has no access to cost data, nor to the exact sums that are granted to individual firms, the conditions under which these sums are allocated, or even to the CVs of the handful of « experts » who negotiate with the industry.</p></br><p>The leaders of many Western countries condemned or ridiculed the positions taken by former US president Donald Trump, denounced those of conspirators and demagogues of all stripes, and claim to be the proponents of science, the real science, the one based on evidence and validated methods (« evidence-based »). However, under the pretext of urgency, the requirements are being scrapped, the transparency within the pharmaceutical field that has emerged in recent years as an imperative social demand and a political necessity is being pushed aside3. The collective risks that the world’s population is currently taking for the development of vaccines justifies public access to the results of vaccine trials in real time, to allow the greatest number of scientists (from the public, private and civil society sectors) to independently analyse the data and understand what these candidate vaccines will do not only to the virus but also to the organisms of the individuals vaccinated. This is especially true when testing technologies that have never been validated before (such as messenger RNA vaccines).<br /></br>And yet, things continue to be done in the secrecy demanded by a handful of firms – the new « double blind ».</p></br><p>In these conditions, in demanding equitable access to the COVID vaccine, there is a growing feeling that this is above all a manoeuvre in the service of a few firms. In the name of the right to access, and because we know that there will be no effective fight against the virus on a global scale without sharing technologies, we demand access for all. But we cannot ignore the fact that, despite the rhetoric, no real solidarity is being put in place. The COVAX initiative is collecting crumbs, and behind what looks like a charity mechanism on the fringes, we are witnessing the consolidation of an international practice of pre-purchasing (« market advance commitment ») without clear information on costs, funding received by each companies, contracts or prices, the vast majority of which benefits the multinationals. The social demand for access then serves above all to justify the rush of public commitments without transparency or conditions; and one accepts turning a blind eye to an absurd economy, which corrupts science and medicine and makes global health look like a playground for financiers and other investment funds.</p></br><p>As the experiences of 2020 have shown, and in particular with the fiasco in terms of care capacity and shortages of basic health products in wealthy countries, this global epidemic should lead us to seriously review the way we fund medical research and health: how we govern public resources, protect the public interest and involve the public in achieving access to health for all. Instead of this necessary reformulation of public health policies, we are witnessing a forced shift to a market logic that benefits only a few actors, and every day excludes a little more people from the right to health, in poor countries as well as in rich countries.</p></br><p>(*) The practice of double-blinding in clinical trials consists of ensuring that neither the doctor nor the patient knows whether it is the active product being tested or a placebo that is being used. On the other hand the « double-blind » approach to research funding, which consists of refusing to make public, information on the use of resources and the results of trials leaving the public « blind », – is totally inappropriate. One scenario is designed to create impartiality and fairness the other to favour special interests and create injustice. </p></br><p>1 Many candidate vaccines have been or still are currently being tested in dozens of phase III trials, i.e. efficacy and benefit/risk ratio trials on volunteers; and nearly 200 candidate vaccines are being developed worldwide.

A new part of town will be developed there in the coming years. The challenge is to transform this piece of land, which is public property, into territory where a city for the common good can be started and established, a city district imagined and developed through partnership between the public authorities and the citizens. Our proposal, the results of two years of exchange and reflection in common, is summarized <a href="https://commonsjosaphat.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/commons-josaphat_josaphat-en-commun01light.pdf">in this document</a>. </p></br><p><H1>Commons Josaphat today</H1></p></br><p>The collective continues to work in three main ways:</p></br><p>Effective occupation of the lot with other partners aiming to “make” this city as a commons, to immediately occupy its squares and spaces by using them.

This island should shape the city in common (through accessibility to the largest number of people over the long run, collective decision-making on land rents, environmental integration, promotion of the solidarity economy and open source, inscribing values of health in the design of the city, anchoring in local neighborhoods…) But it must also be realistic about the needs of public authorities (revenues generated, realization times and amounts realized). This island should serve as a point of evaluation that follows the issuing of the first phase of the master plan for the region; </p></br><p>Building broad political conviction</p></br><li>1. Strengthening social support to the “Josaphat in common” proposal: support of associations, academics, intellectuals, unions, mutual societies<br /></br>2.

  • Chargement/Site  + (<p>Spain’s recent municipal and regi<p>Spain’s recent municipal and regional elections have transformed the entire political scene. New citizen coalitions with roots in community groups allied with small progressive political parties won unexpected victories in several large cities. This, plus the fact that two new national political parties – Podemos and Ciudadanos – burst decisively onto the political stage in the regional elections, has blocked the bipartisan (PP-PSOE) system created with the 1975 democratic transition. Victorious in 7 major cities throughout the country, including the 3 largest ones (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia), these coalitions open the door to a different sort of transition, questioning the dominant political culture and mentality, and in most cases putting in place minority governments, thus obliging various parties to negotiate joint platforms. It is interesting to note that Podemos, the young political party that made a surprise showing in the 2014 European elections and made strong gains on the regional level this year, decided not to present its own candidates in the municipal elections, but rather participated in or – more frequently – supported the new citizen coalitions in various cities.</p></br><h2>Reinventing Urban Commons for the XXIst Century</h2></br><p>These newcomers to the municipal political scene identifiy with the Commons, and in some cases even include the term in their names : Barcelona en Comù, Zaragoza en Comun… A perusal of their programmes and of the manner in which they were developed demonstrates that this is not simply an empty phrase, but the reference to the Commons introduces instead a new political discourse and horizon and, above all, a new way of ‘doing’ politics. The new candidates-elect come from different social movements and this is their first experience in electoral politics. Their ‘non-parties’ are in general less than a year old but the organisations they come from have held massive mobilisations and won significant local victories. On analysis, the new political culture they aim for is rooted in the tradition of urban struggle now revisited and improved on the basis of the citizen movements that originated in the 2008 financial crisis, the indignados of 2011, and the successive ‘waves’ (mareas) that followed in the housing, health, education, culture and urban ecology sectors. The tradition of self-management and ‘self-government’ often rooted in libertarianism and long known as ‘municipalism’ has been revisited by the culture and practices of the many anti-growth, ecological, alter-globalisation, and cultural movements inspired by the spirit of the Indignados of 2011 with an impressive mastery and intelligent use of new technologies and audiovisual media.</p></br><p>The challenges facing this new municipalism are enormous : the problems are illustrated by the findings of two international reports revealed immediately following the May 24 elections. The firsti underlined the explosion of the level of poverty since the beginning of the crisis (increase from 9% to 18%) while the secondii demonstrated an increase of 40% of the number of extremely rich during the same period. Adding to the general morosity by reiterating prevailing logic, the IMF seized the occasion, shortly prior to the investiture of the new municipal governments, to congratulate the Spanish government on its ‘encouraging’ economic results while publicly reminding it that it must continue its austerity measures by increasing indirect taxes, cutting health and education budgets still more and lowering wages. What else could be expected from the fans of austerity?</p></br><h2>The Re-dignified Good Life In Common</h2></br><p>But such dire pronouncements do not scathe the confidence of the new mayors whose campaigns were run and programmes built on an anti-austerity stance; they are already putting in place (Barcelona is a good example) some of the measures set out in their plan of attack for affordable housing, food, accessible public utilities and transportation, and a basic living allowance. They are dedicating an unprecedented quantity of resources for municipal governments to these measures in an explicit attempt to counter the ‘de-humanising’ effects of austerity policies and to ‘restore the dignity’ of the most vulnerable. But the declared intentions of the new municipal leaders go far beyond the emergency measures of the first few months of their term. They want to turn their cities into living experiments in promoting an urban Good Life that redefines economic and social policy and municipal responsabilities as well as democratic practices on the municipal but also the regional, national and international levels. In her inaugural speech as Mayor of Barcelona, Ada Colau called for the creation of a ‘network of democratic cities in Southern Europe’.</p></br><h2>Transparency and Participation</h2></br><p>This incipient revolution in political culture and practice is taking place with total transparency, with the creation of a code of ethics, cutting the salaries of the elected representatives and eliminating statutory perks (official cars, per diems, etc) and, above all, by wagering on the collective intelligence and active participation of local citizens. Indeed, many of them have already taken part in the municipal programme by contributing to its elaboration prior to and during the campaign in the many neighbourhood meetings and various ‘crowd-sourcing’ moments on virtual platforms. The resulting highly structured programme remains an open document and is in itself an invitation to participate. The web page of Barcelona en Comù boldly states : ‘The programme you have before you is a programme In Common and, as you can see, that requires a major change from traditional political programmes […] it’s a document that aims to be useful to dialogue amongst citizens.’ iii</p></br><p>During her inauguration ceremony, Ada Colau asserted that ‘it is indispensable to create a new form of governance’, reminding the crowd that she is but ‘one of thousands of neighbours’, that she plans to ‘govern by obeying’ and that if she and her team do not deliver on their programme promises ‘Kick us out!’. The thousands of people watching the ceremony on giant screens in Plaza Sant Jaume greeted her speech with shouts of ‘Yes we can!’ (Si se puede), echoing the slogans of the public meetings held throughout the campaign. In a crowd so dense that she could hardly make her way through, but clearly at ease surrounded by ‘neighbours’, comrades and partisans, Ada slipped into the discourse and manner of the ex-president and activist of the PAHiv. With her charming smile, she declared to the enthusiastic crowd that ‘governing will not be easy but we are not alone’ and called on them to show responsability and to actively participate. She concluded evoking the need for empathy and invited the crowd to organise a demonstration in support of the strking telephone workers of Movistar, present in the crowd, and whose struggle she has supported throughout the campaign. The tone has been set, and indicates that it is not only the Commons but also the spirit of the Indignados movement that has come to City Hall.</p></br><h2>The Realism of the Commons</h2></br><p>In an article titled ‘It’s time for realism’, Josep Ramoneda, columnist for the catalan daily Ara, compared the proposals of Barcelona en Comù to the latest demands of the IMF, demonstrating that the ‘nihilist utopias’ – a label often used by the media and the governing right wing PP party to denigrate progressive alternatives – are instead found in the proposals of the neoliberal hardliners, incapable as they have shown themselves to be of finding a solution to the economic crisis and deepening inequality. He concludes by affirming ‘Let’s be realistic, let us consider the common good’v – a somewhat astonishing comment in this newpaper reputed to be more interested in supporting independence than the Commons. A comment that also reveals that the Commons have come not only to Town Hall, but are emerging in the collective imagination and in political discourse.</p></br><h2>A Living Laboratory, an Invitation to Commoning</h2></br><p>The emerging glocal movement of commoners and their apprentices should observe closely what transpires in this living laboratory of the urban commons. There is a lot to learn from this commons in action about the nature of the commons, the process of commoning and the possible transition to a commons society. This is also a unique opportunity to contribute peer-to-peer with our own experiences and know-how, developed all over the globe in the many different socio-cultural contexts where the Commons are being reinvented in recent years.</p></br><p><strong>Alain Ambrosi, Barcelona, 17 June 2015</strong></p></br><p>1 OECD, May 2015 <a href="http://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/employment/in-it-together-why-lne.ess-inequality-benefits-all_9789264235120-en">http://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/employment/in-it-together-why-lne.ess-inequality-benefits-all_9789264235120-en</a><br /></br>2 Capgemini and Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) Wealth Management.

In this sense, it will be better to work on Our commons than to define THE commons and to try to transform organizations working on their values, projects and actions, rather than seeking Commons as a theoretical or ideological framework.</p></br><p>Another avenue is to share les lessons learned by activists of the intangible and knowledge commons that, since the emergence of the computer have been able to build a movement that defends their values, distributed forms of collaboration , openness and freedom , sharing and solidarity , personal empowerment and participation in collectives, acting on a small scale while remaining in a universal vision. This movement is generally invisible as a social movement for people who are not activists.

In this sense, it will be better to work on Our commons than to define THE commons and to try to transform organizations working on their values, projects and actions, rather than seeking Commons as a theoretical or ideological framework.</p></br><p>Another avenue is to share les lessons learned by activists of the intangible and knowledge commons that, since the emergence of the computer have been able to build a movement that defends their values, distributed forms of collaboration , openness and freedom , sharing and solidarity , personal empowerment and participation in collectives, acting on a small scale while remaining in a universal vision. This movement is generally invisible as a social movement for people who are not activists. Everyone uses free software, access to culture and free knowledge, most of the time without paying attention. Yet organizations of knowledge and free culture are structured and are  » NGO  » or  » OCS  » weighty. Just consider the most visible in the public area alike Wikimedia Foundation, or the weight of this movement in the industrial sector (IBM , Android, …) or the work of lobbying done by groups aloke EFF Quadrature net, to realize that. It is a movement to maturity. This experience and the culture it develops worth sharing. </p></br><p>Would not it be helpful to think a similar movement in the field of materials, urban, rural and natural commons?</p></br><p>Frédéric Sultan</p>ould not it be helpful to think a similar movement in the field of materials, urban, rural and natural commons?</p> <p>Frédéric Sultan</p>)

  • Chargement/Site  + (<p>The Charter of the Forest – Carta<p>The Charter of the Forest – Carta de Foresta – published in 1217, is recognized as the first official act that extends the protections and essential rights of the Magna Carta to the English commoners against the abuses of the aristocracy. Under this charter, the people are guaranteed the right to access forest resources. The impact of this charter has been revolutionary. It is generally considered one of the cornerstones of the British Constitution and<a href="https://www.americanbar.org/groups/public_services/law_library_congress/charter_of_the_forest.html"> inspiration of the American Constitution</a> (2). It has made it possible to render vast expanses of land to the peasants, to oppose the plundering of the common goods by the monarchy and the aristocracy. In the 17th century, it has inspired the Diggers and Levellers and later protests against the enclosure of lands by the capitalist bourgeoisie. But it was repealed in 1971 by a conservative government, allowing the privatization of resources such as water for the benefit of multinational companies.</p></br><p>Today, forests remain essential resources for housing, food sovereignty, and are essential for fighting environmental crises. A <a href="http://charteroftheforest800.org/">campaign</a> to celebrate the Forest Charter began in Britain in September and continues in November. The Lincoln Record Society has organized an international conference on the Charter of the Forest that began with a houseboat trip on the River Thames from Windsor to Runnymede, the place where was signed the Magna Carta. Experts presented the Charter of the Forest, its history and its contemporary implications. Participants were also able to see one of the original copies of the Forest Charter and participated in a guided tour of the Forest of Sherwood that (in France) we know through Robin Hood story.</p></br><p>Today, there is a debate chaired by the Shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell MP, with Professors Peter Linebaugh and Guy Standing, and Julie Timbrell of <a href="https://thenewputneydebates.com/">New Putney Debates</a>. This debate is part of a week-long program (6) calling for the creation of a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesday_Book">new Domesday Book</a>, a national census of UK landowners and the identification of the common goods as well as a new Commons Charter and Communities Charters. This is to question the notion of land ownership in a country where it is one of the most concentrated in the western countries, and to elaborate proposals, including a possible tax on land ownership, for a better distribution of rights and responsibilities to land.</p></br><p>Thanks to Yves Otis for reporting the article <a href="https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2017/11/youve-never-heard-charter-important-magna-carta.html">Why You’ve Never Heard of a Charter as Important as the Magna Carta</a></p></br><p>Transcript of the Forest Charter: <a href="http://www.constitution.org/eng/charter_forest.html">http://www.constitution.org/eng/charter_forest.html</a></p> Forest Charter: <a href="http://www.constitution.org/eng/charter_forest.html">http://www.constitution.org/eng/charter_forest.html</a></p>)
  • Chargement/Site  + (<p>The violent destruction of the co<p>The violent destruction of the commons of the ZAD (Zone To Defend) of Notre-Dame-des-Landes by the French government is an infamous and revolting act. The current police offensive, led by several thousand gendarmes and CRS equipped with armored vehicles and helicopters is only the exercise of the purest State violence against a set of collective practices that are in progress or in preparation. This includes their fragile material conditions (buildings, meeting places, work tools, herds), and they  are now destroyed by bulldozers and police squads.</p></br><p>Since the first day of assault on the ZAD of Notre-Dame-des-Landes, the destruction of the farm of the «Cents Noms» was a true declaration of social and political war. The destruction of this place was by no means imperative given the criteria invoked by the government in its « communication ». Nicole Klein, Prefect of Loire Region(<a href="#note1" name="retour au texte1"> 1</a>), justifies the police operation by claiming that the «Cents Noms» had not submitted an agricultural project. This is obviously false: the inhabitants of this farm were carrying an alternative agricultural project and some of them had submitted a request for regularization.</p></br><p>What is the real reason for this destructive rage? It is not the absence of a project, it is the nature of the projects that is at stake. The State and its representatives do not support the life forms that are experimented here and now, and for the past 10 years. These life forms prefigure a society free from the ownership logic in all its dimensions. From this point of view, it is of the highest symbolic value that the inhabitants and defenders of the zone propose the Assembly of Uses to take charge of the collective management of lands and spaces from the beginning. This solution would’ve had the advantage to straightly extend the experience initiated and pursued for so many years: to make the logic of the common use which is a logic of care and nurture, or to prevail over the logic of land ownership which is a destructive and deadly logic.</p></br><p>It is not the « Constitutional State » that defends itself, as the Prime Minister affirms, it is a State of force that wants to eliminate as quickly and completely as possible all actions that could perform the principle of the Common: associations, consumers and workers cooperatives, agricultural and craft projects, convivial modes of exchange and of life. The government wants to prevent the invention of what is a real way of producing and living by using its excessive police force. It also wants to eliminate a solidary and ecological model of life that we need today.</p></br><p>The State shows its true face here. It is not only protecting  private ownership, but it is itself completely under the logic of ownership. It is the Owner State in war against the commons. It must be defeated at all costs to preserve the treasure threatened of the commons.<br /></br><strong><br /></br>Pierre Dardot and Christian Laval</strong></p></br><p>—–</p></br><p>Note :<br /></br><a name="note1"></a>(1) The Prefect is a representative of the public authority in the department, directly appointed by the President of the Republic (and not elected as mayors).</p></br><p>—–<br /></br>Original edition : <a href="http://questionmarx.typepad.fr/question-marx/2018/04/nddl-non-a-la-violence-de-letat-contre-les-communs-.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NDDL : NON A LA VIOLENCE DE L’ETAT CONTRE LES COMMUNS ! </a> Thursday, April 12 2018</p></br><p>Translated in English by Frédéric Sultan and Alexandre Guttmann</p>gt;NDDL : NON A LA VIOLENCE DE L’ETAT CONTRE LES COMMUNS ! </a> Thursday, April 12 2018</p> <p>Translated in English by Frédéric Sultan and Alexandre Guttmann</p>)

  • La monnaie comme institution du commun  + (Antonio di Stasio dans cette séance met l'Antonio di Stasio dans cette séance met l'accent sur le rôle crucial que la dimension monétaire joue dans la reproduction de la dynamique du commun qui suppose tout autant des mécanismes politiques qu’impersonnels de socialisation et de réification des rapports sociaux. Dans cette démarche, il prend en examen diverses contributions (Harribey, Couppey-Soubeyran, Marazzi, etc.) qui ont conçus de nouveaux modes de régulation de l’émission de la monnaie et du financement des activités en partant de la primauté des besoins sociaux et écologiques plutôt que de celle du travail abstrait et de la logique de la formule générale du capital (A-MA’). La thèse qu'il défend est que l’avenir du commun est indissociable de l'institution d'une monnaie du commun, si l’on ne veut pas le réduire à une enclave ou à une pure utopie, mais le penser comme un véritable mode de production potentiellement capable de conquérir une position hégémonique face aux logiques du public et du privé.e face aux logiques du public et du privé.)

  • Un nouveau droit pour l'administration partagée de biens communs  + ('''De nouvelles règles juridiques pour pre'''De nouvelles règles juridiques pour prendre soin des biens communs et reconstruire les communautés locales'''.</br></br>Quelque chose de nouveau s'est produit en Italie ces dernières années, quelque chose que personne n'aurait cru possible dans un pays où les biens communs ont traditionnellement été considérés comme les biens de personne, donc la proie du pillage ou de l'exploitation. C'est un changement culturel grâce auquel des milliers de personnes dans les villes comme dans les villages, au nord comme au sud, sortent de chez eux pour prendre soin avec leurs voisins des biens communs urbains : rues, places, parcs et espaces publics en général, biens culturels, écoles ainsi que des bâtiments publics abandonnés qui sont restaurés et revivent grâce aux efforts combinés de citoyens actifs. Tout cela va bien au-delà de la simple maintenance des biens urbains. Il s'agit plutôt d'une participation à la vie publique sous de nouvelles formes, alors que les citoyens actifs participent non seulement aux décisions publiques (démocratie participative), mais aussi à la solution des problèmes d'intérêt général (administration partagée). Ce faisant, ils construisent ou reconstruisent les liens qui unissent leur communauté, aident les gens à lutter contre la solitude, produisent l'intégration, le capital social et la confiance réciproque. L'impact positif de l'engagement des citoyens à prendre soin des biens communs va donc bien au-delà des aspects matériels, aussi importants soient-ils pour une meilleure qualité de vie. Cependant, paradoxalement, les règles juridiques issues d'une conception ancienne de la relation entre les citoyens et l'État interdisent de telles activités. C'est pourquoi le Labsus (Laboratorio per la sussidiarietà) a élaboré en 2014, en collaboration avec la municipalité de Bologne, de nouvelles règles municipales pour réglementer l'administration partagée et permettre aux citoyens de prendre soin des biens communs. Ces nouvelles règles ont été adoptées par les municipalités de tout le pays, permettant aux citoyens d'avoir des rapports égaux avec les administrations publiques locales, libérant ainsi de précieuses ressources et énergies civiques dans l'intérêt général. énergies civiques dans l'intérêt général.)

Le document rédigé collectivement, qui continue de recueillir les signatures collectives et individuelles à travers toute l’Europe, sert d’appel dans le but de constituer un réseau de «commoners».</p></br><p>L’Assemblée cherche à unir les citoyens dans un élan de solidarité trans-local et trans-européen pour faire face aux défis actuels de l’Europe et relancer le processus politique pour le 21e siècle. Les biens communs peuvent être compris comme un paradigme de transition qui met l’accent sur la coopération dans la gestion des ressources, des connaissances, des outils et des espaces aussi divers que l’eau, Wikipedia, le crowdfunding, ou un jardin communautaire. Leur appel décrit les communs comme :</p></br><ol></br>… les initiatives locales de coopération partant des habitants, basées sur le réseau qui sont déjà soutenues par des millions de personnes à travers l’Europe et le monde. Ces initiatives créent des systèmes autogérés qui répondent à des besoins importants.

Le temps est venu pour une transformation du monde politique, à travers une Assemblée européenne des communs.</em></p></br><p>L’Appel inclue une invitation à participer à une rencontre ouverte à Bruxelles du 15 au 17 Novembre 2016 pour trois jours d’activités et de réflexion partagée sur la façon de protéger et de promouvoir les communs.

But the need for protection demanded equality. But in the 21st century there is rejection of the notion of protection linked to statism: Nancy Fraser published an article(3) in the New Left Review, it is a re-reading of Polanyi and she claims that this double movement between commodification and protection is still valid, but that the State-based protection typical of the 20th century, where equality is guaranteed by the State, clashes since the end of the 20th century with the growing importance of heterogeneity, diversity and personal autonomy. Therefore, if in order to obtain equality, we have to be dependent on what the State does, this is going to be a contradiction…. So we could translate those values that informed the definition of policies in the 20th century, in 21st century terms they would be the idea of freedom (or personal autonomy, the idea of empowerment, not subjection, non-dependence) and at the same time equality, but no longer simply equality of opportunities but also equality of condition because we have to compensate for what is not the same (equal) in society. If you say « equal opportunities », that everyone has access to cultural facilities, to libraries, you are disregarding the fact that the starting conditions of people are not the same, this is the great contribution of Amartya Sen, no? You have to compensate for unequal starting situations because otherwise you depoliticize inequality and consider that inequality is the result of people’s lack of effort to get out of poverty. So equality yes, but the approach is different. And we must incorporate the idea of diversity as a key element in the recognition of people and groups on the basis of their specific dignity. That seems easy to say, but in reality it is complicated, especially if you relate it to culture, because culture has to do with all these things: it has to do with the construction of your personality, it has to do with equal access to culture just as cultural rights and culture have to do with the recognition of different forms of knowledge and culture – canonical culture, high culture, popular culture, everyday culture, neighbourhood culture …<br /></br>So for me, a cultural policy should be framed within the triple focus of personal autonomy, equality and diversity. And this is contradictory, in part, with the cultural policies developed in the past, where there is usually confusion between equality and homogeneity. In other words, the left has tended to consider that equality meant the same thing for everyone and that is wrong, isn’t it?, because you are confusing equality with homogeneity. The opposite of equality is inequality, the opposite of homogeneity is diversity. So you have to work with equality and diversity as values that are not antagonistic, but can be complementary. And this is a challenge for public institutions because they do not like heterogeneity, they find it complicated because it is simpler to treat everyone the same, as the administrative law manual used to prescribe `indifferent efficiency’: it is a way of understanding inequality as indifference, right?</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: In your article you also talk about the opposition between investing in infrastructures versus creating spaces and environments that are attractive to creators and you put an emphasis on the generation of spaces. What is being done, what has been done, what could be done about this?</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : In Barcelona we want to ensure that the city’s cultural policies do not imply producing culture itself, but rather to try to influence the values in the production processes that already exist, in the facilities, in the cultural and artistic infrastructures: the role of the city council, of the municipality, is not so much to produce culture as to contribute to the production of culture. Which is different, helping to produce culture…. Obviously, the city council will give priority to those initiatives that coincide with the values, with the normative approach that we promote. There are some exceptions, for example, the Grec festival in Barcelona(4) in July, or the Mercé(5), which is the Festa Mayor, where the city council does in fact subsidize the production of culture, so some productions are subsidised but generally what we have is a policy of aid to creators. What is being done is that 11 creative factories (fablabs) have been built, these are factories with collectives that manage them chosen through public tenders. There are now 3 factories of circus and visual arts, 2 factories of dance creation, one factory of more global creation housed at Fabra & Coats, 3 theatre factories and 2 visual arts and technology sites. So there are 11 factories of different sorts and there are plans to create others, for example in the field of feminist culture where we are in discussion with a very well consolidated group : normally all these creative factories have their management entrusted to collectives that already become highly consolidated in the process of creation and that need a space to ensure their continuity. Often the city council will cede municipal spaces to these collectives, sometimes through public competitions where the creators are asked to present their project for directing a factory. This is one aspect. Another aspect is what is called living culture, which is a programme for the promotion of cultural activities that arise from the community or from collectives in the form of cooperatives and this is a process of aid to collectives that are already functioning, or occasionally to highlight cultural activities and cultural dynamics that have existed for a long time but have not been dignified, that have not been valued, for example the Catalan rumba of the Gypsies, which is a very important movement in Barcelona that emerged from the gypsy community of El Raval, where there were some very famous artists like Peret. There we invested in creating a group to work on the historical memory of the rumba, looking for the roots of this movement, where it came from and why. Then some signposts were set up in streets where this took place, such as La Cera in El Raval, where there are two murals that symbolise the history of the Catalan rumba and the gypsy community in this area so that this type of thing is publicly visible. That is the key issue for culture: a recognition that there are many different cultures.</p></br><p>Then there is the area of civic centres: approximately 15% of the civic centres in the city are managed by civic entities as citizen heritage, and those civic centres also have cultural activities that they decide on, and the city council, the municipality helps them develop the ideas put forward by the entities that manage those centres.</p></br><p>So, if we put all those things together, we could talk about a culture of the urban commons. It is still early stages, this is still more of a concept than a reality, but the underlying idea is that in the end the density and the autonomous cultural-social fabric will be strong enough to be resilient to political changes. In other words, that you have helped to build cultural practices and communities that are strong and autonomous enough that they are not dependent on the political conjuncture. This would be ideal. A bit like the example I often cite about the housing cooperatives in Copenhagen, that there was 50% public housing in Copenhagen, and a right-wing government privatised 17% of that public housing, but it couldn’t touch the 33% of housing that was in the hands of co-operatives. Collective social capital has been more resilient than state assets: the latter is more vulnerable to changes in political majorities.</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: You also speak of situated culture which I think is very important: setting it in time and space. Now Facebook has announced it is coming to Barcelona so the Barcelona brand is going to be a brand that includes Facebook and its allies. But your conception of a situated culture is more about a culture where social innovation, participation, popular creativity in the community are very important…</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : Yes, it seems contradictory. In fact what you’re asking is the extent to which it makes sense to talk about situated culture in an increasingly globalized environment which is more and more dependent on global platforms. I believe that tension exists and conflict exists, this is undeniable, the city is a zone of conflict, therefore, the first thing we have to accept is that the city is a battleground between political alternatives with different cultural models. It is very difficult for a city council to set out univocal views of a cultural reality that is intrinsically plural. Talking about situated culture is an attempt to highlight the significance of the distinguishing factors that Barcelona possesses in its cultural production. This does not mean that this situated culture should be a strictly localist culture – a situated culture does not mean a culture that cuts off global links – it is a culture that relates to the global on the basis of its own specificity. What is most reprehensible from my point of view are cultural dynamics that have a global logic but that can just as well be here or anywhere else. And it’s true that the platforms generate this. An example: the other day the former minister of culture of Brazil, Lluca Ferreira, was here and talked about a program of living culture they developed, and they posted a photograph of some indigenous people where the man wore something that covered his pubic parts but the woman’s breasts were naked. So Facebook took the photograph off the site, and when the Minister called Facebook Brazil to say ‘what is going on?’, they told him that they didn’t have any duty towards the Brazilian government, that the only control over them was from a judge in San Francisco and that, therefore, if the judge in San Francisco forced them to put the photograph back, they would put it back, otherwise they wouldn’t have to listen to any minister from Brazil or anywhere else. In the end, there was a public movement of protest, and they put the photo back. The same thing happened here a few days ago, a group from a municipal theatre creation factory put up a poster with a man’s ass advertising a play by Virginia Wolff and Facebook took their entire account off the net – not just the photograph, they totally removed them from Facebook. And here too Facebook said that they are independent and that only the judge from San Francisco and so on. I believe that this is the opposite of situated culture because it is a global cultural logic, but at the same time it allows itself to be censored in Saudi Arabia, in China, that is to say it has different codes in each place. So to speak of situated culture means to speak of social transformation, of the relationship between culture and social transformation situated in the context in which you are working. But at the same time to have the will to dialogue with similar processes that exist in any other part of the world and that is the strength of a situated culture. And those processes of mutuality, of hybridization, that can happen when you have a Pakistani community here, you have a Filipino community, you have a Chinese community, you have a Gypsy community, you have an Italian community, you have an Argentinean community: they can be treated as typical folkloric elements in a theme park, or you can try to generate hybridization processes. Now at the Festival Grec this year there will be poetry in Urdu from the Pakistanis, there will be a Filipino theatre coming and a Filipino film fest at the Filmoteca – and this means mixing, situating, the cultural debate in the space where it is happening and trying to steep it in issues of cultural diversity. What I understand is that we need to strive for a local that is increasingly global, that this dialogue between the local and the global is very important.</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: Returning to social innovation and popular creativity, social innovation is also a concept taken up pretty much everywhere: how is it understood here? Taking into account that in the world of the commons, Catalonia, and especially Barcelona, is very well known for its fablabs, which are also situated in this new era. How then do you understand social innovation and how do you see the relationship between education and social innovation?</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : What I am trying to convey is that the traditional education system is doing little to prepare people and to enhance inclusive logics in our changing and transforming society, so in very broad lines I would say that if health and education were the basic redistributive policies of the 20th century, in the 21st century we must incorporate culture as a basic redistributive policy. Because before, the job market had very specific demands for the education sector: it knew very well what types of job profiles it needed because there was a very Taylorist logic to the world of work – what is the profile of a baker, of a plumber, of a miller? How many years you have to study for this kind of work. There is now a great deal of uncertainty about the future of the labour market, about how people will be able to work in the future and the key words that appear are innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship, flexibility, ability to understand a diverse world, teamwork , being open to new ideas: this has little to do with traditional educational profiles, but it has much to do with culture, with things that allow you to acquire that backpack of basic tools that will help you navigate in a much more uncertain environment. And for me, to find the right connection between culture and education is very important because it allows the educational system to constantly transform itself by taking advantage of the creative potential of an environment that is much more accessible now than before because of new technologies, and therefore to make the transition from a deductive system where there is a teacher who knows and tells people what they need to know – to an inductive system: how do we explore what we need to know in order to be able to act. And that more inductive, more experimental logic has to do with creativity whereas the traditional education system didn’t postulate creativity, it postulated your ability to learn what someone else had decided you needed to study. It’s art, it is culture that allows you to play in that field much more easily …</p></br><p><strong> Translated from Spanish by Nancy Thede.</strong></p></br><p>1 Joan Subirats is Commissioner for culture in the city government of Barcelona led by the group Barcelona en comu.

But the need for protection demanded equality. But in the 21st century there is rejection of the notion of protection linked to statism: Nancy Fraser published an article(3) in the New Left Review, it is a re-reading of Polanyi and she claims that this double movement between commodification and protection is still valid, but that the State-based protection typical of the 20th century, where equality is guaranteed by the State, clashes since the end of the 20th century with the growing importance of heterogeneity, diversity and personal autonomy. Therefore, if in order to obtain equality, we have to be dependent on what the State does, this is going to be a contradiction…. So we could translate those values that informed the definition of policies in the 20th century, in 21st century terms they would be the idea of freedom (or personal autonomy, the idea of empowerment, not subjection, non-dependence) and at the same time equality, but no longer simply equality of opportunities but also equality of condition because we have to compensate for what is not the same (equal) in society. If you say « equal opportunities », that everyone has access to cultural facilities, to libraries, you are disregarding the fact that the starting conditions of people are not the same, this is the great contribution of Amartya Sen, no? You have to compensate for unequal starting situations because otherwise you depoliticize inequality and consider that inequality is the result of people’s lack of effort to get out of poverty. So equality yes, but the approach is different. And we must incorporate the idea of diversity as a key element in the recognition of people and groups on the basis of their specific dignity. That seems easy to say, but in reality it is complicated, especially if you relate it to culture, because culture has to do with all these things: it has to do with the construction of your personality, it has to do with equal access to culture just as cultural rights and culture have to do with the recognition of different forms of knowledge and culture – canonical culture, high culture, popular culture, everyday culture, neighbourhood culture …<br /></br>So for me, a cultural policy should be framed within the triple focus of personal autonomy, equality and diversity. And this is contradictory, in part, with the cultural policies developed in the past, where there is usually confusion between equality and homogeneity. In other words, the left has tended to consider that equality meant the same thing for everyone and that is wrong, isn’t it?, because you are confusing equality with homogeneity. The opposite of equality is inequality, the opposite of homogeneity is diversity. So you have to work with equality and diversity as values that are not antagonistic, but can be complementary. And this is a challenge for public institutions because they do not like heterogeneity, they find it complicated because it is simpler to treat everyone the same, as the administrative law manual used to prescribe `indifferent efficiency’: it is a way of understanding inequality as indifference, right?</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: In your article you also talk about the opposition between investing in infrastructures versus creating spaces and environments that are attractive to creators and you put an emphasis on the generation of spaces. What is being done, what has been done, what could be done about this?</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : In Barcelona we want to ensure that the city’s cultural policies do not imply producing culture itself, but rather to try to influence the values in the production processes that already exist, in the facilities, in the cultural and artistic infrastructures: the role of the city council, of the municipality, is not so much to produce culture as to contribute to the production of culture. Which is different, helping to produce culture…. Obviously, the city council will give priority to those initiatives that coincide with the values, with the normative approach that we promote. There are some exceptions, for example, the Grec festival in Barcelona(4) in July, or the Mercé(5), which is the Festa Mayor, where the city council does in fact subsidize the production of culture, so some productions are subsidised but generally what we have is a policy of aid to creators. What is being done is that 11 creative factories (fablabs) have been built, these are factories with collectives that manage them chosen through public tenders. There are now 3 factories of circus and visual arts, 2 factories of dance creation, one factory of more global creation housed at Fabra & Coats, 3 theatre factories and 2 visual arts and technology sites. So there are 11 factories of different sorts and there are plans to create others, for example in the field of feminist culture where we are in discussion with a very well consolidated group : normally all these creative factories have their management entrusted to collectives that already become highly consolidated in the process of creation and that need a space to ensure their continuity. Often the city council will cede municipal spaces to these collectives, sometimes through public competitions where the creators are asked to present their project for directing a factory. This is one aspect. Another aspect is what is called living culture, which is a programme for the promotion of cultural activities that arise from the community or from collectives in the form of cooperatives and this is a process of aid to collectives that are already functioning, or occasionally to highlight cultural activities and cultural dynamics that have existed for a long time but have not been dignified, that have not been valued, for example the Catalan rumba of the Gypsies, which is a very important movement in Barcelona that emerged from the gypsy community of El Raval, where there were some very famous artists like Peret.

  • Chargement/Site  + (<blockquote><p>An experience o<blockquote><p>An experience of self-management of computational infrastructure, that allows organizations to embed digital sovereignty into their thinking on transition and take action!</p></blockquote></br><p>Together with other individuals and organizations, and in collaboration with <a href="https://www.koumbit.org/">Koumbit</a>, Remix the commons is developing a collective response to the need for digital tools and infrastructures. The idea is to ensure full digital sovereignty over our work, exchanges and data in coherence with the vision set out in the Charter for Building a Data Commons for a Free, Fair and Sustainable Future.</p></br><p>After having tested with Koumbit, an independent and solidary hosting company in Montreal, our ability to set up and manage some tools based on open source and the commons on a shared server, we designed a cooperation system based on a model similar to that of AMAPs, which we call the « Konbit numerique », in reference to the konbit of Haitian farmers. <a href="https://wiki.remixthecommons.org/index.php?title=Konbit">Konbit</a> numerique is a prototype of « computational commons » for commoners’ projects. It proposes a working infrastructure that makes it possible to gradually achieve the objectives of independence and sovereignty on information and communication technology.</p></br><p>Our Konbit numerique consists of a group of identified users and a server administrator, Koumbit cooperator. It is based on a 6 TB server hosted by Koumbit in Montreal (<a href="https://nuage.en-commun.net">https://nuage.en-commun.net)</a>, in which are installed the applications we need, tools based on open source and commons: file sharing, calendars, task management, online editing of text documents, table, email,… and most importantly for us a wiki farm. This is coverering a large part of the current digital uses of our organizations.</p></br><p>Users are involved in the governance, and as much as possible in maintenance. The work of the server administrator is handled by the collective through a monthly intervention time credit system. This includes, in addition to the time dedicated to server maintenance, time reserved for future technical developments that will be allocated according to the Konbit’s needs. The idea is therefore to jointly pre-finance a digital infrastructure dedicated to the collective. This infrastructure is not based on capitalist logic.

We have set ourselves the objective of gradually expanding the first collective to a balance between technical need/capacity and finance/governance.

But the need for protection demanded equality. But in the 21st century there is rejection of the notion of protection linked to statism: Nancy Fraser published an article(3) in the New Left Review, it is a re-reading of Polanyi and she claims that this double movement between commodification and protection is still valid, but that the State-based protection typical of the 20th century, where equality is guaranteed by the State, clashes since the end of the 20th century with the growing importance of heterogeneity, diversity and personal autonomy. Therefore, if in order to obtain equality, we have to be dependent on what the State does, this is going to be a contradiction…. So we could translate those values that informed the definition of policies in the 20th century, in 21st century terms they would be the idea of freedom (or personal autonomy, the idea of empowerment, not subjection, non-dependence) and at the same time equality, but no longer simply equality of opportunities but also equality of condition because we have to compensate for what is not the same (equal) in society. If you say « equal opportunities », that everyone has access to cultural facilities, to libraries, you are disregarding the fact that the starting conditions of people are not the same, this is the great contribution of Amartya Sen, no? You have to compensate for unequal starting situations because otherwise you depoliticize inequality and consider that inequality is the result of people’s lack of effort to get out of poverty. So equality yes, but the approach is different. And we must incorporate the idea of diversity as a key element in the recognition of people and groups on the basis of their specific dignity. That seems easy to say, but in reality it is complicated, especially if you relate it to culture, because culture has to do with all these things: it has to do with the construction of your personality, it has to do with equal access to culture just as cultural rights and culture have to do with the recognition of different forms of knowledge and culture – canonical culture, high culture, popular culture, everyday culture, neighbourhood culture …<br /></br>So for me, a cultural policy should be framed within the triple focus of personal autonomy, equality and diversity. And this is contradictory, in part, with the cultural policies developed in the past, where there is usually confusion between equality and homogeneity. In other words, the left has tended to consider that equality meant the same thing for everyone and that is wrong, isn’t it?, because you are confusing equality with homogeneity. The opposite of equality is inequality, the opposite of homogeneity is diversity. So you have to work with equality and diversity as values that are not antagonistic, but can be complementary. And this is a challenge for public institutions because they do not like heterogeneity, they find it complicated because it is simpler to treat everyone the same, as the administrative law manual used to prescribe `indifferent efficiency’: it is a way of understanding inequality as indifference, right?</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: In your article you also talk about the opposition between investing in infrastructures versus creating spaces and environments that are attractive to creators and you put an emphasis on the generation of spaces. What is being done, what has been done, what could be done about this?</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : In Barcelona we want to ensure that the city’s cultural policies do not imply producing culture itself, but rather to try to influence the values in the production processes that already exist, in the facilities, in the cultural and artistic infrastructures: the role of the city council, of the municipality, is not so much to produce culture as to contribute to the production of culture. Which is different, helping to produce culture…. Obviously, the city council will give priority to those initiatives that coincide with the values, with the normative approach that we promote. There are some exceptions, for example, the Grec festival in Barcelona(4) in July, or the Mercé(5), which is the Festa Mayor, where the city council does in fact subsidize the production of culture, so some productions are subsidised but generally what we have is a policy of aid to creators. What is being done is that 11 creative factories (fablabs) have been built, these are factories with collectives that manage them chosen through public tenders. There are now 3 factories of circus and visual arts, 2 factories of dance creation, one factory of more global creation housed at Fabra & Coats, 3 theatre factories and 2 visual arts and technology sites. So there are 11 factories of different sorts and there are plans to create others, for example in the field of feminist culture where we are in discussion with a very well consolidated group : normally all these creative factories have their management entrusted to collectives that already become highly consolidated in the process of creation and that need a space to ensure their continuity. Often the city council will cede municipal spaces to these collectives, sometimes through public competitions where the creators are asked to present their project for directing a factory. This is one aspect. Another aspect is what is called living culture, which is a programme for the promotion of cultural activities that arise from the community or from collectives in the form of cooperatives and this is a process of aid to collectives that are already functioning, or occasionally to highlight cultural activities and cultural dynamics that have existed for a long time but have not been dignified, that have not been valued, for example the Catalan rumba of the Gypsies, which is a very important movement in Barcelona that emerged from the gypsy community of El Raval, where there were some very famous artists like Peret. There we invested in creating a group to work on the historical memory of the rumba, looking for the roots of this movement, where it came from and why. Then some signposts were set up in streets where this took place, such as La Cera in El Raval, where there are two murals that symbolise the history of the Catalan rumba and the gypsy community in this area so that this type of thing is publicly visible. That is the key issue for culture: a recognition that there are many different cultures.</p></br><p>Then there is the area of civic centres: approximately 15% of the civic centres in the city are managed by civic entities as citizen heritage, and those civic centres also have cultural activities that they decide on, and the city council, the municipality helps them develop the ideas put forward by the entities that manage those centres.</p></br><p>So, if we put all those things together, we could talk about a culture of the urban commons. It is still early stages, this is still more of a concept than a reality, but the underlying idea is that in the end the density and the autonomous cultural-social fabric will be strong enough to be resilient to political changes. In other words, that you have helped to build cultural practices and communities that are strong and autonomous enough that they are not dependent on the political conjuncture. This would be ideal. A bit like the example I often cite about the housing cooperatives in Copenhagen, that there was 50% public housing in Copenhagen, and a right-wing government privatised 17% of that public housing, but it couldn’t touch the 33% of housing that was in the hands of co-operatives. Collective social capital has been more resilient than state assets: the latter is more vulnerable to changes in political majorities.</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: You also speak of situated culture which I think is very important: setting it in time and space. Now Facebook has announced it is coming to Barcelona so the Barcelona brand is going to be a brand that includes Facebook and its allies. But your conception of a situated culture is more about a culture where social innovation, participation, popular creativity in the community are very important…</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : Yes, it seems contradictory. In fact what you’re asking is the extent to which it makes sense to talk about situated culture in an increasingly globalized environment which is more and more dependent on global platforms. I believe that tension exists and conflict exists, this is undeniable, the city is a zone of conflict, therefore, the first thing we have to accept is that the city is a battleground between political alternatives with different cultural models. It is very difficult for a city council to set out univocal views of a cultural reality that is intrinsically plural. Talking about situated culture is an attempt to highlight the significance of the distinguishing factors that Barcelona possesses in its cultural production. This does not mean that this situated culture should be a strictly localist culture – a situated culture does not mean a culture that cuts off global links – it is a culture that relates to the global on the basis of its own specificity. What is most reprehensible from my point of view are cultural dynamics that have a global logic but that can just as well be here or anywhere else. And it’s true that the platforms generate this. An example: the other day the former minister of culture of Brazil, Lluca Ferreira, was here and talked about a program of living culture they developed, and they posted a photograph of some indigenous people where the man wore something that covered his pubic parts but the woman’s breasts were naked. So Facebook took the photograph off the site, and when the Minister called Facebook Brazil to say ‘what is going on?’, they told him that they didn’t have any duty towards the Brazilian government, that the only control over them was from a judge in San Francisco and that, therefore, if the judge in San Francisco forced them to put the photograph back, they would put it back, otherwise they wouldn’t have to listen to any minister from Brazil or anywhere else. In the end, there was a public movement of protest, and they put the photo back. The same thing happened here a few days ago, a group from a municipal theatre creation factory put up a poster with a man’s ass advertising a play by Virginia Wolff and Facebook took their entire account off the net – not just the photograph, they totally removed them from Facebook. And here too Facebook said that they are independent and that only the judge from San Francisco and so on. I believe that this is the opposite of situated culture because it is a global cultural logic, but at the same time it allows itself to be censored in Saudi Arabia, in China, that is to say it has different codes in each place. So to speak of situated culture means to speak of social transformation, of the relationship between culture and social transformation situated in the context in which you are working. But at the same time to have the will to dialogue with similar processes that exist in any other part of the world and that is the strength of a situated culture. And those processes of mutuality, of hybridization, that can happen when you have a Pakistani community here, you have a Filipino community, you have a Chinese community, you have a Gypsy community, you have an Italian community, you have an Argentinean community: they can be treated as typical folkloric elements in a theme park, or you can try to generate hybridization processes. Now at the Festival Grec this year there will be poetry in Urdu from the Pakistanis, there will be a Filipino theatre coming and a Filipino film fest at the Filmoteca – and this means mixing, situating, the cultural debate in the space where it is happening and trying to steep it in issues of cultural diversity. What I understand is that we need to strive for a local that is increasingly global, that this dialogue between the local and the global is very important.</p></br><p><strong>AA</strong></p></br><ul>: Returning to social innovation and popular creativity, social innovation is also a concept taken up pretty much everywhere: how is it understood here? Taking into account that in the world of the commons, Catalonia, and especially Barcelona, is very well known for its fablabs, which are also situated in this new era. How then do you understand social innovation and how do you see the relationship between education and social innovation?</ul></br><p><strong>JS</strong> : What I am trying to convey is that the traditional education system is doing little to prepare people and to enhance inclusive logics in our changing and transforming society, so in very broad lines I would say that if health and education were the basic redistributive policies of the 20th century, in the 21st century we must incorporate culture as a basic redistributive policy. Because before, the job market had very specific demands for the education sector: it knew very well what types of job profiles it needed because there was a very Taylorist logic to the world of work – what is the profile of a baker, of a plumber, of a miller? How many years you have to study for this kind of work. There is now a great deal of uncertainty about the future of the labour market, about how people will be able to work in the future and the key words that appear are innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship, flexibility, ability to understand a diverse world, teamwork , being open to new ideas: this has little to do with traditional educational profiles, but it has much to do with culture, with things that allow you to acquire that backpack of basic tools that will help you navigate in a much more uncertain environment. And for me, to find the right connection between culture and education is very important because it allows the educational system to constantly transform itself by taking advantage of the creative potential of an environment that is much more accessible now than before because of new technologies, and therefore to make the transition from a deductive system where there is a teacher who knows and tells people what they need to know – to an inductive system: how do we explore what we need to know in order to be able to act. And that more inductive, more experimental logic has to do with creativity whereas the traditional education system didn’t postulate creativity, it postulated your ability to learn what someone else had decided you needed to study. It’s art, it is culture that allows you to play in that field much more easily …</p></br><p><strong> Translated from Spanish by Nancy Thede.</strong></p></br><p>1 Joan Subirats is Commissioner for culture in the city government of Barcelona led by the group Barcelona en comu.

Chimère permet de placer sur des cartes des « points d’intérêts » (définis par leur coordonnées géographiques) du texte + des documents multimédia (video, audio, images). Les points d’intérêts peuvent être classés dans des catégories organisées par familles. Les cartes par zones sont des sélections de territoires géographiques et de catégories.</p></blockquote></br><p><iframe loading="lazy" src="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/def-commons/simple" width="900" height="550" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no"></iframe><br /></br><a href="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/def-commons" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Agrandir</a> – <a href="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/def-commons/edit/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Participer</a></p></br><p>La première idée, en commençant cette expérience, était de situer sur une carte la centaine de définition des biens communs réalisées depuis Berlin 2010 et de regarder comment utiliser ce support comme un moyen d’expression collectif sur la notion de biens communs. Pour le test, une quinzaine de définitions sont placées sur la carte. L’intégration de l’ensemble de la centaine de définitions disponibles donnera une carte plus fournie. Elles sont consultables par langues. Le tri par tag n’existe pas. Sa mise en place est la prochaine étape à mettre en oeuvre. Il permettra de rendre plus visible les «enjeux» mis en évidence via le site Remix The Commons. L’intégration de cette carte dans le site de remix se fait par widget dans un article de blog ou une page. A terme, la carte pourrait être alimentée par mashup de services multimédia.</p></br><p>Deuxième expérience : le placement sur une <a href="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/type-de-biens-communs">carte de documents descriptifs des pratiques de commoning</a> par catégories « types de communs » (uniquement avec les catégories parents de la classification de Charlotte Hess utilisée sur le site de Remix The Commons). Les cartes peuvent être réalisées par espaces géographiques. <a href="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/visages-des-communs">Ici </a>une carte de quelques points situés au Quebec.</p></br><p>Chimère permet librement l’ajout de nouveaux points d’intérêt par les utilisateurs via un <a href="http://remixthecommons.infini.fr/type-de-biens-communs/edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">formulaire</a> assez simple. Ce formulaire est configuré pour proposer aux utilisateurs de classer les points d’intérêts selon les catégories de la carte à laquelle on propose un nouveau point.</p></br><p>A ce stade, il serait utile de compléter Chimère avec les éléments tels qu’un dispositif de tags des points d’intérêts, la synchronisation des fiches sur les cartes, la synchronisation des points d’intérêts dans le catalogue de Remix.</p></br><p>Mais pour aller plus loin, il faudrait travailler sur les approches de cartographie des communs. Le recensement de ressources est le premier degré d’une cartographie des communs. Il faudrait imaginer de cartographier les éléments constitutifs des communs tels que les modes d’administration des ressources ou de répartition de droits de propriété, les systèmes de valeurs attachées aux pratiques de commoning et certainement d’autres choses encore.</p></br><p>Frédéric Sultan</p></br><p><iframe class="igtranslator-iframe" src="about:blank" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></p></br><div class="igtranslator-activator-icon" style="background-image: url('resource://jid1-dgnibwqga0sibw-at-jetpack/igtranslator/data/content_script/icon.png');" title="Click to Show Translation"></div></br><p><iframe class="igtranslator-iframe" src="about:blank" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></p></br><div class="igtranslator-activator-icon" style="background-image: url('resource://jid1-dgnibwqga0sibw-at-jetpack/igtranslator/data/content_script/icon.png');" title="Click to Show Translation"></div>or-activator-icon" style="background-image: url('resource://jid1-dgnibwqga0sibw-at-jetpack/igtranslator/data/content_script/icon.png');" title="Click to Show Translation"></div>)

Cette initiative vise à produire avec les habitants, les activistes dans le territoire, des cartographies vivantes, composées de courtes vidéos documentaires et de vidéoposts. La démarche proposée prend la forme d’un intense atelier de plusieurs jours avec des étudiants en communication et des activistes pour rechercher les communs, les définir et rendre visible sur le territoire en produisant les médias qui constitueront la carte.</p></br><p>Pablo de Soto a initié cette approche autour des biens communs urbains d’<a href="http://mappingthecommons.net/map-of-istanbul-commons/">istambul</a> et <a href="http://mappingthecommons.net/map-of-athens-commons/">Athènes</a>, On peut voir en particulier qu’un travail avait été conduit sur <a href="http://mappingthecommons.net/taksim-square/">Taksim Square</a>, dont la privatisation a été l’un des points de départ de la contestation en Turquie cette année. La cartographie est un outil stratégique. Mais la recherche des biens communs est un processus de cartographie de l’espace urbains qui doit se comprendre, bien sur « ainsi que le proposent Deleuze et Guattari, et l’ont utilisé de nombreux artistes et activistes durant la dernière décade, comme une <a href="http://cartografiaciudadana.net/athenscommons/auto.php">performance</a> qui peut devenir réflexion, travail artistique, ou action de transformation sociale » (Pablo Soto).</p></br><p>Le 20 mars 2013 un wikisprint a été réalisé à Barcelone utilisant les mêmes principes et méthodologie. Sous le titre de « Global P2P », il s’agissait de cartographier les pratiques de Communs et de P2P en Amérique latine et en Europe du sud.

Beaucoup considèrent que ces mobilisations, leurs revendications et leurs modes d’organisation relèvent du paradigme des Communs.

Quand il s’agit de la recherche dans ce domaine, la vision des peuples autochtones sur la façon dont les études relatives à leur patrimoine sont gérés, est généralement peu prise en compte. De plus en plus cependant, des efforts sont faits pour décoloniser les pratiques de recherche en favorisant des relations plus équitables entre les chercheurs et les peuples autochtones, fondées sur la confiance mutuelle et la collaboration.</p></br><p>Dans cette présentation, George Nicholas critique les débats sur la «propriété» du patrimoine autochtone et fournit des exemples de nouvelles pratiques de recherche qui sont à la fois plus éthiques et plus efficaces. Ces modèles de recherche en collaboration, dans lesquels la communauté mène la recherche, mettent en évidence de nouvelles orientations importantes dans la protection du patrimoine des peuples autochtones.</p></br><p>IPinCH (Intellectual Property Issues in Cultural Heritage) est un projet international de recherche participative autour de la réappropriation de l’héritage culturel par les communautés ancestrales. A qui appartient le passé ? A qui bénéficie-t-il ? quelles sont les conceptions culturelles de l’héritage culturel (de la mémoire) ? Comment distinguer accaparement et emprunts culturels (cultural borrowings) ? Ce projet croise des questions sur le domaine public, la nature de la recherche conduite par les communautés (et non pour elles) et sur les connaissances ancestrales (et culturelles en général). Il montre un éventail de processus de gestion collective des connaissances des communautés et tire des principes applicables à la recherche et pour comprendre les questions étudiées.

The first term of office 2015-2019 was held with a minority government and in a regional and national context that was politically and ideologically unfavourable to the development of a « new municipalism of the commons » and an « alternative way of doing politics » that Barcelona claimed to be « en Comù ».</p></br><p>The time has come to take stock and, of course, many will have something to say about the achievements made by comparing them to the initial programme. But when we see on the one hand the concrete achievements that often go beyond or question the competences of a municipality (housing, mobility, civic income, health, immigration, tourism, feminisation of politics, energy and technological sovereignty, etc) and on the other hand, what has been done to put transparency in the relationship between the institution, the social movements and the neighbourhood assemblies and the research, for a co-production of policies, we can affirm that the results are generally positive.</p></br><p>The commons movement members and the supporters of a new municipalism, can be pleased that, thanks to a coalition of social movements, that has had the courage (and it is necessary) to invest an institution impregnated with neo-liberal practices and a logic of political parties fights, that is often far from the needs and realities of residents, Barcelona remains one of the most dynamic laboratories of urban commons and a model to which to refer.</p></br><p>The <a href="https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/digital/sites/default/files/pla_barcelona_digital_city_in.pdf_barcelona_digital_city_in.pdf">review of the digital plan</a> implemented during the first mandate proposed here is characteristic of the achievements, critical path and creativity of this laboratory.</p></br><p>Here is how the city summarizes the principles of its action:</p></br><blockquote><p>Establish itself as a global reference point as a city of commons and collaborative production<br /></br>End privatisation and transfer of public assets in private hands, while promoting remunicipalisation of critical urban infrastructures<br /></br>Massively reduce the cost of basic services like housing, transport, education and health, in order to assist those in the most precarious strata of the population<br /></br>Institute a citizens basic income focused on targeting proverty and social exclusion Barcelona Digital City Plan (2015-2019)<br /></br>Build data-driven models of the economy, with real inputs (using real time data analytics) so that participatory democracy could model complex decisions<br /></br>Prefer and promote collaborative organisations over both the centralised state and the market solutions (start investing higher percentages of public budget in innovative SMEs and the cooperative sector)<br /></br>Build city data commons: decree that the networked data of the population generated in the context of using public services cannot be owned by services operators</p></blockquote></br><p>These principles are embodied in an action programme, the effects of which are detailed in this document. In addition to the emblematic 13,000 policy proposals from the inhabitants, of which 9.245 (72%) have been accepted, there have been 126 cases of corruption reported through the Transparency mailbox since 2017 or the inclusion of gender differences in the STEAM education and technological training programme.</p></br><p>Finally, Barcelona, here as in other areas, is building on and strengthening city networks. It initiated – with New York and Amsterdam – the Coalition of Cities for Digital Rights and launched the campaign « 100 Cities in 100 Days » to defend 5 principles of digital policy:</p></br><blockquote></br><ul></br><li>Equal and universal access to Internet and computer literacy Barcelona Digital City Plan (2015-2019)</li></br><li>Privacy, data protection and security</li></br><li>Transparency, accountability and non-discrimination in data, content and algorithms</li></br><li>Participatory democracy, diversity, and inclusion</li></br><li>Open and ethical digital service standards</li></br></ul></br></blockquote></br><p>The cities of the Coalition are developing common roadmaps, laws, tools, actions and resources to protect the digital rights of residents and visitors.</p></br><p><strong>Alain Ambrosi and Frédéric Sultan</strong></p></br><p><em>For a more exhaustive assessment see the sector-by-sector assessment on the <a href="https://barcelonaencomu.cat/es">Barcelona Joint Site (in Spanish)</a> </em></p> protect the digital rights of residents and visitors.</p> <p><strong>Alain Ambrosi and Frédéric Sultan</strong></p> <p><em>For a more exhaustive assessment see the sector-by-sector assessment on the <a href="https://barcelonaencomu.cat/es">Barcelona Joint Site (in Spanish)</a> </em></p>)

Le premier mandat 2015-2019 s’est  effectué avec un gouvernement minoritaire et  dans un contexte régional et national politiquement et idéologiquement peu propice au développement d’un «  nouveau municipalisme des communs » et d’« une autre manière de faire de la politique»  dont se réclamait Barcelona en Comù. L’heure est au bilan et, bien sûr, beaucoup auront à dire sur les réalisations effectuées en les comparant au  programme initial. Mais quand on voit d’une part les réalisations concrètes qui dépassent souvent  ou questionnent les compétences d’une municipalité  (logement, mobilité, revenu  civique, santé, immigration, tourisme, féminisation de la politique, souveraineté énergétique  et technologique, etc.) et d’autre part ce qui a été mis en place pour transformer la relation entre l’institution, les mouvements sociaux et les assemblées de quartiers dans la transparence et la recherche de co-production de politiques, on peut affirmer que le bilan est globalement positif.</p></br><p>Le mouvement des communs et les tenants d’un nouveau municipalisme ne peuvent que se féliciter que, grâce à une coalition de mouvements sociaux qui a eu le courage (et il en faut) d’investir  une institution aux pratiques imprégnées de néo- libéralisme et dans une logique de partis souvent éloignée des besoins et réalités des résidents,  Barcelone demeure un des laboratoires des communs urbains les plus dynamiques et un modèle auquel se référer.</p></br><p>Le <a href="https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/digital/sites/default/files/pla_barcelona_digital_city_in.pdf">bilan du plan numérique</a> mis en place au cours du premier mandat que l’on propose ici est caractéristique des réalisations, du cheminement critique et de la créativité de ce laboratoire.</p></br><p>Voici comment la ville y résume les principes de son action :</p></br><blockquote></br><ul></br><li>S’imposer comme une référence mondiale en tant que ville des communs et de la production collaborative.</li></br><li>Mettre fin à la privatisation et au transfert des actifs publics au secteur privé, tout en encourageant la re-municipalisation des infrastructures urbaines critiques.</li></br><li>Réduire massivement le coût des services de base tels que le logement, les transports, l’éducation et la santé, afin d’aider les couches les plus précaires de la population.</li></br><li>Instituer un revenu de base des citoyens axé sur la lutte contre la pauvreté et l’exclusion sociale</li></br><li>Construire des modèles de l’économie guidés par les données, avec des intrants réels (en utilisant des analyses de données en temps réel) afin que la démocratie participative puisse modéliser des décisions complexes.</li></br><li>Préférer et promouvoir les organisations collaboratives plutôt que les solutions centralisées de l’État et du marché (augmenter la proportion des investissements du budget public dans les PME innovantes et le secteur coopératif).</li></br><li>Construire le patrimoine commun de données de la ville : décréter que les données de la population générées dans le cadre de l’utilisation des services publics ne peuvent être la propriété des opérateurs de services.</li></br></ul></br></blockquote></br><p>Ces principes s’incarnent dans un programme d’actions dont ce document détaille les effets. À coté des emblématiques 13 000 propositions politiques qui émanent des habitants, dont 9,245 (72%) ont été acceptées, on relève par exemple les 126 cas de corruption dénoncés à travers la boite courriel de la transparence (Transparency mailbox) depuis 2017 ou la prise en compte de la différence des genres dans le programme STEAM d’éducation et de formation technologique .</p></br><p>Enfin, Barcelone, ici comme dans d’autres domaines, s’appuie et renforce les réseaux de villes. Elle a initié – avec New-York et Amsterdam – la Coalition des villes pour les droits numériques et lancé la campagne « 100 villes en 100 jours »pour défendre 5 principes de politique numérique :</p></br><blockquote></br><ul></br><li>l’accès égal et universel à l’Internet et à la culture numérique</li></br><li>la protection de la vie privée et la sécurité des données</li></br><li>la transparence, la responsabilité et la non-discrimination dans l’usage les données, les contenus et les algorithmes</li></br><li>la démocratie participative, la diversité et l’inclusion</li></br><li>l’ouverture des services numériques et des normes éthiques</li></br></ul></br></blockquote></br><p>Les villes de la Coalition développent des feuilles de route, lois, outils, actions et ressources communes pour protéger les droits numériques des résidents et des visiteurs.</p></br><p><strong>Alain Ambrosi et Frédéric Sultan</strong></p></br><p><em>Pour un bilan plus exhaustif voir le bilan secteur par secteur sur le <a href="https://barcelonaencomu.cat/es">site de Barcelone en Commun (en espagnol)</a> ou bien l’actualité sur le <a href="https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/en/">site de la mairie de Barcelone (en anglais) </a>.</em></p><a href="https://barcelonaencomu.cat/es">site de Barcelone en Commun (en espagnol)</a> ou bien l’actualité sur le <a href="https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/en/">site de la mairie de Barcelone (en anglais) </a>.</em></p>)

The team that put together the proposals is led by Michel Bauwens from the </i><a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/"><i>Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives</i></a><i>. What is the background to this plan, and how likely is it that it will bear fruit?  With the hope of finding out I spoke recently to Bauwens.</i></div></br><div>One interesting phenomenon to emerge from the Internet has been the growth of free and open movements, including free and open source software, open politics, open government, open data, citizen journalism, creative commons, open science, open educational resources (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_educational_resources">OER</a>), open access etc.</div></br><div>While these movements often set themselves fairly limited objectives (e.g. “<a href="http://cogprints.org/1702/">freeing the refereed literature</a>”) some network theorists maintain that the larger phenomenon they represent has the potential not just to replace traditional closed and proprietary practices with more open and transparent approaches, and not just to subordinate narrow commercial interests to the greater needs of communities and larger society but, since the network enables ordinary citizens to collaborate together on large meaningful projects in a distributed way (and absent traditional hierarchical organisations), it could have a significant impact on the way in which societies and economies organise themselves.</div></br><div>In his influential book <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wealth_of_Networks"><i>The Wealth of Networks</i></a>, for instance, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yochai_Benkler">Yochai Benkler</a> identifies and describes a new form of production that he sees emerging on the Internet — what he calls “<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commons-based_peer_production">commons-based peer production</a>”. This, he says, is creating a new <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/macloo/networked-information-economy-benkler">Networked Information Economy</a>.</div></br><div>Former librarian and Belgian network theorist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Bauwens">Michel Bauwens</a> goes so far as to say that by enabling peer-to-peer (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_peer-to-peer_processes">P2P</a>) collaboration, the Internet has created a new model for the future development of human society. In addition to peer production, he <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2006/09/p2p-blueprint-for-future.html">explained to me in 2006</a>, the network also encourages the creation of peer property (i.e. commonly owned property), and peer governance (governance based on civil society rather than representative democracy).</div></br><div>Moreover, what is striking about peer production is that it emerges and operates outside traditional power structures and market systems. And when those operating in this domain seek funding they increasingly turn not to the established banking system, but to new P2P practices like crowdfunding and social lending.</div></br><div>When in 2006 I asked Bauwens what the new world he envisages would look like in practice he replied, “I see a P2P civilisation that would have to be post-capitalist, in the sense that human survival cannot co-exist with a system that destroys the biosphere; but it will nevertheless have a thriving marketplace. At the core of such a society — where immaterial production is the primary form — would be the production of value through non-reciprocal peer production, most likely supported through a basic income.”</div></br><h2>Unrealistic and utopian?</h2></br><div> So convinced was he of the potential of P2P that in 2005 Bauwens created the <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/">Foundation for Peer-to-Peer Alternatives</a>. The goal: to “research, document and promote peer-to-peer principles”</div></br><div>Critics dismiss Bauwens’ ideas as unrealistic and utopian, and indeed in the eight years since I first spoke with him much has happened that might seem to support the sceptics. Rather than being discredited by the 2008 financial crisis, for instance, traditional markets and neoliberalism have tightened their grip on societies, in all parts of the world.</div></br><div>At the same time, the democratic potential and openness Bauwens sees as characteristic of the network is being eroded in a number of ways. While social networking platforms like Facebook enable the kind of sharing and collaboration Bauwens sees lying at the heart of a P2P society, for instance, there is a growing sense that these services are in fact exploitative, not least because the significant value created by the users of these services is being monetised not for the benefit of the users themselves, but for the exclusive benefit of the large corporations that own them.</div></br><div>We have also seen a huge growth in proprietary mobile devices, along with the flood of apps needed to run on them — a development that caused <i>Wired’s</i> former editor-in-chief <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Anderson_%28writer%29">Chris Anderson</a> to <a href="http://www.wired.com/2010/08/ff_webrip">conclude</a> that we are witnessing a dramatic move “from the wide-open Web to semi closed platforms”. And this new paradigm, he added, simply “reflects the inevitable course of capitalism”.</div></br><div>In other words, rather than challenging or side-lining the traditional market and neoliberalism, the network seems destined to be appropriated by it — a likelihood that for many was underlined by the recent <a href="http://www.latimes.com/business/hiltzik/la-fi-mh-net-neutrality-20140114-story.html#page=1">striking down</a> of the US net neutrality regulations.</div></br><div>It would also appear that some of the open movements are gradually being appropriated and/or subverted by commercial interests (e.g. the <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/the-state-of-open-access.html">open access</a> and open educational resources movements).</div></br><div>While conceding that a capitalist version of P2P has begun to emerge, Bauwens argues that this simply makes it all the more important to support and promote social forms of P2P. And here, he suggests, the signs are positive, with the number of free and open movements continuing to grow and the P2P model bleeding out of the world of “immaterial production” to encompass material production too — e.g. with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_design">open design</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_hardware">open hardware</a> movements, a development encouraged by the growing use of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3d_printing">3D printers</a>.</div></br><div>Bauwens also points to a growth in mutualisation, and the emergence of new practices based around the sharing of physical resources and equipment.</div></br><div>Interestingly, these latter developments are often less visible than one might expect because much of what is happening in this area appears to be taking place outside the view of mainstream media in the global north.</div></br><div>Finally, says Bauwens, the P2P movement, or commoning (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bollier">as some prefer to call it</a>), is becoming increasingly politicised. Amongst other things, this has seen the rise of new political parties like the various <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party">Pirate Parties</a>.</div></br><div>Above all, Bauwens believes that the long-term success of P2P is assured because its philosophy and practices are far more sustainable than the current market-based system. “Today, we consider nature infinite and we believe that infinite resources should be made scarce in order to protect monopolistic players,” he says below. “Tomorrow, we need to consider nature as a finite resource, and we should respect the abundance of nature and the human spirit.”</div></br><h2>Periphery to mainstream</h2></br><div>And as the need for sustainability becomes ever more apparent, more people will doubtless want to listen to what Bauwens has to say. Indeed, what better sign that P2P could be about to move from the periphery to the mainstream than an invitation Bauwens received last year from three Ecuadorian governmental institutions, who asked him to lead a team tasked with coming up with proposals for transitioning the country to a society based on free and open knowledge.</div></br><div>The organisation overseeing the project is the FLOK Society (free, libre, open knowledge). As “commoner” <a href="http://bollier.org/about">David Bollier</a> <a href="http://bollier.org/blog/bauwens-joins-ecuador-planning-commons-based-peer-production-economy">explained</a> when the project was announced, Bauwens’ team was asked to look at many interrelated themes, “including open education; open innovation and science; ‘arts and meaning-making activities’; open design commons; distributed manufacturing; and sustainable agriculture; and open machining.”</div></br><div>Bollier added, “The research will also explore enabling legal and institutional frameworks to support open productive capacities; new sorts of open technical infrastructures and systems for privacy, security, data ownership and digital rights; and ways to mutualise the physical infrastructures of collective life and promote collaborative consumption.”</div></br><div>In other words, said Bollier, Ecuador “does not simply assume — as the ‘developed world’ does — that more iPhones and microwave ovens will bring about prosperity, modernity and happiness.”</div></br><div>Rather it is looking for sustainable solutions that foster “social and territorial equality, cohesion, and integration with diversity.”</div></br><div>The upshot: In April Bauwens’ team published a series of <a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Pl">proposals</a> intended to transition Ecuador to what he calls a sustainable civic P2P economy. And these proposals will be discussed at a summit to be held this week in the capital of Ecuador (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quito">Quito</a>).</div></br><div>“As you can see from our proposals, we aim for a simultaneous transformation of civil society, the market and public authorities,” says Bauwens. “And we do this without inventing or imposing utopias, but by extending the working prototypes from the commoners and peer producers themselves.”</div></br><div>But Bauwens knows that Rome wasn’t built in a day, and he realises that he has taken on a huge task, one fraught with difficulties. Even the process of putting the proposals together has presented him and his team with considerable challenges. Shortly after they arrived in Ecuador, for instance, they were told that the project had been defunded (funding that was fortunately later reinstated). And for the moment it remains unclear whether many (or any) of the FLOK proposals will ever see the light of day.</div></br><div>Bauwens is nevertheless upbeat. Whatever the outcome in Ecuador, he says, an important first stab has been made at creating a template for transitioning a nation state from today’s broken model to a post-capitalist social knowledge society.</div></br><div>“What we have now that we didn’t have before, regardless of implementation in Ecuador, is the first global commons-oriented transition plan, and several concrete legislative proposals,” he says. “They are far from perfect, but they will be a reference that other locales, cities, (bio)regions and states will be able to make their own adapted versions of it.”</div></br><div>In the Q&A below Bauwens discusses the project in more detail, including the background to it, and the challenges that he and the FLOK Society have faced.</div></br><h2>The interview begins</h2></br><div><b><i>RP:  We last spoke in 2006 when you discussed your ideas on a P2P (peer-to-peer) society (which I think </i></b><a href="http://www.bollier.org/"><b><i>David Bollier</i></b></a><b><i> refers to as “commoning”). Briefly, what has been learned since then about the opportunities and challenges of trying to create a P2P society, and how have your thoughts on P2P changed/developed as a result?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> At the time, P2P dynamics were mostly visible in the process of “immaterial production”, i.e. productive communities that created commons of knowledge and code. The trend has since embraced material production itself, through <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_design">open design</a> that is linked to the production of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_hardware">open hardware</a> machinery.</div></br><div>Another trend is the mutualisation of physical resources. We’ve seen on the one hand an explosion in the mutualisation of open workspaces (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace">hackerspaces</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_lab">fab labs</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coworking">co-working</a>) and the explosion of the so-called sharing economy and collaborative consumption.</div></br><div>This is of course linked to the emergence of distributed practices and technologies for finance (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crowdfunding">crowd funding</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_lending">social lending</a>); and for machinery itself (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3d_printing">3D printing</a> and other forms of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_manufacturing">distributed manufacturing</a>). Hence the emergence and growth of P2P dynamics is now clearly linked to the “distribution of everything”.</div></br><div>There is today no place we go where social P2P initiatives are not developing and not exponentially growing. P2P is now a social fact.</div></br><div>Since the crisis of 2008, we are also seeing much more clearly the political and economic dimension of P2P. There is now both a clearly capitalist P2P sector (renting and working for free is now called sharing, which is putting downward pressure on income levels) and a clearly social one.  First of all, the generalised crisis of our economic system has pushed more people to search for such practical alternatives. Second, most P2P dynamics are clearly controlled by economic forces, i.e. the new “netarchical” (hierarchy of the network) platforms.</div></br><div>Finally, we see the increasing politicisation of P2P, with the emergence of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party">Pirate Parties</a>, network parties (Partido X in Spain) etc.</div></br><div>We have now to decide more clearly than before whether we want more autonomous peer production, i.e. making sure that the domination of the free social logic of permissionless aggregation is directly linked to the capacity to generate self-managed livelihoods, or, if we are happy with a system in which this value creation is controlled and exploited by platform owners and other intermediaries.</div></br><div>The result of all of this is that my own thoughts are now more directly political. We have developed concrete proposals and strategies to create P2P-based counter-economies that are de-linked from the accumulation of capital, but focused on cooperative accumulation and the autonomy of commons production.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: Indeed and last year you were </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/bauwens-joins-ecuador-planning-commons-based-peer-production-economy"><b><i>asked to lead a team</i></b></a><b><i> to come up with proposals to “remake the roots of Ecuador’s economy, setting off a transition into a society of free and open knowledge”. As I understand it, this would be based on the principles of open networks, peer production and commoning. Can you say something about the project and what you hope it will lead to? Has the Ecuadoran government itself commissioned you, or a government or non-government agency in Ecuador? </i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> The project, called <a href="http://floksociety.org/">FLOKSociety.org</a>, was commissioned by three Ecuadorian governmental institutions, i.e. the <a href="http://www.conocimiento.gob.ec/">Coordinating Ministry of Knowledge and Human Talent</a>, the <a href="http://www.senescyt.gob.ec/web/guest">SENESCYT</a> (Secretaría Nacional de Educación Superior, Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación) and the <a href="http://iaen.edu.ec/">IAEN</a> (Instituto de Altos Estudios del Estado).</div></br><div>The legitimacy and logic of the project comes from the <a href="http://www.unosd.org/content/documents/96National%20Plan%20for%20Good%20Living%20Ecuador.pdf">National Plan of Ecuador</a>, which is centred around the concept of Good Living (<a href="http://www.theguardian.com/sustainable-business/blog/buen-vivir-philosophy-south-america-eduardo-gudynas">Buen Vivir</a>), which is a non-reductionist, non-exclusive material way to look at the economy and social life, inspired by the traditional values of the indigenous people of the Andes. The aim of FLOK is to add “Good Knowledge” as an enabler and facilitator of the good life.</div></br><div>The important point to make is that it is impossible for countries and people that are still in neo-colonial dependencies to evolve to more fair societies without access to shareable knowledge. And this knowledge, expressed in diverse commons that correspond to the different domains of social life (education, science, agriculture, industry), cannot itself thrive without also looking at both the material and immaterial conditions that will enable their creation and expansion.</div></br><h2>FLOK summit</h2></br><div><b><i>RP: To this end you have put together a transition plan. This includes </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/ecuador%E2%80%99s-pathbreaking-plan-commons-based-peer-production-update"><b><i>a series of proposals</i></b></a><b><i> (available </i></b><a href="https://floksociety.co-ment.com/text/"><b><i>here</i></b></a><b><i>), and a main report (</i></b><a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan"><b><i>here</i></b></a><b><i>). I assume your plan might or might not be taken up by Ecuador. What is the procedure for taking it forward, and how optimistic are you that Ecuador will embark on the transition you envisage?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> The transition plan provides a framework for moving from an economy founded on what we call “cognitive” and “netarchical” capitalism (based respectively on the exploitation through IP rents or social media platforms) to a “mature P2P-based civic economy”.</div></br><div>The logic here is that the dominant economic forms today are characterised by a value crisis, one in which value is extracted but it doesn’t flow back to the creators of the value. The idea is to transition to an economy in which this value feedback loop is restored.</div></br><div>So about fifteen of our policy proposals apply this general idea to specific domains, and suggest how open knowledge commons can be created and expanded in these particular areas.</div></br><div>We published these proposals on April 1<sup>st</sup> in <a href="http://www.co-ment.com/">co-ment</a>, an open source software that allows people to comment on specific concepts, phrases or paragraphs.</div></br><div>This week (May 27<sup>th</sup> to 30<sup>th</sup>) the crucial <a href="http://cumbredelbuenconocer.ec/">FLOK summit</a> is taking place to discuss the proposals. This will bring together government institutions, social movement advocates, and experts, from both Ecuador and abroad.</div></br><div>The idea is to devote three days to reaching a consensus amongst these different groups, and then try and get agreement with the governmental institutions able to carry out the proposals.</div></br><div>So there will be two filters: the summit itself, and then the subsequent follow-up, which will clearly face opposition from different interests.</div></br><div>This is not an easy project, since it is not possible to achieve all this by decree.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: Earlier this year you made a series of </i></b><a href="http://bollier.org/blog/flok-society-vision-post-capitalist-economy"><b><i>videos</i></b></a><b><i> discussing the issues arising from what you are trying to do —  which is essentially to create “a post-capitalist social knowledge society”, or “open commons-based knowledge society”. In one video you discuss three different value regimes, and I note you referred to these in your last answer — i.e. cognitive capitalism, netarchical capitalism and a civic P2P economy. Can you say a little more about how these three different regimes differ and why in your view P2P is a better approach than the other two?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> I define cognitive capitalism as a regime in which value is generated through a combination of rent extraction from the control of intellectual property and the control of global production networks, and expressed in terms of monetisation.</div></br><div>What we have learned is that the democratisation of networks, which also provides a new means of production and value distribution, means that this type of value extraction is harder and harder to achieve, and it can only be maintained either by increased legal suppression (which erodes legitimacy) and outright technological sabotage (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management">DRM</a>). Both of these strategies are not sustainable in the long term.</div></br><div>What we have also learned is that the network has caused a new model to emerge, one adapted to the P2P age, and which I call netarchical capitalism, i.e. “the hierarchy of the network”. In this model, we see the direct exploitation of human cooperation by means of proprietary platforms that both enable and exploit human cooperation. Crucially, while their value is derived from our communication, sharing and cooperation (an empty platform has no value), and on the use value that we are exponentially creating (Google, Facebook don’t produce the content, we do), the exchange value is exclusively extracted by the platform owners. This is unsustainable because it is easy to see that a regime in which the creators of the value get no income at all from their creation is not workable in the long; and so it poses problems for capitalism. After all, who is going to buy goods if they have no income?</div></br><div>So the key issue is: how do we recreate the value loop between creation, distribution, and income? The answer for me is the creation of a mature P2P civic economy that combines open contributory communities, ethical entrepreneurial coalitions able to create livelihoods for the commoners, and for-benefit institutions that can “enable and empower the infrastructure of cooperation”.</div></br><div>Think of the core model of our economy as the Linux economy writ large, but one in which the enterprises are actually in the hands of the value creators themselves. Imagine this micro-economic model on the macro scale of a whole society. Civil society becomes a series of commonses with citizens as contributors; the shareholding market becomes an ethical stakeholder marketplace; and the state becomes a partner state, which “enables and empowers social production” through the commonication of public services and public-commons partnerships.</div></br><h2>Challenges and distrust</h2></br><div><b><i>RP: As you indicated earlier, it is not an easy project that you have embarked on in Ecuador, particularly as it is an attempt to intervene at the level of a nation state. Gordon Cook has </i></b><a href="http://www.cookreport.com/newsletter-sp-542240406/current-issues/287-cook-report-for-may-june-2014"><b><i>said</i></b></a><b><i> of the project: “it barely got off the ground before it began to crash into some of the anticipated obstacles.” Can you say something about these obstacles and how you have been overcoming them?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> It is true that the project started with quite negative auspices. It became the victim of internal factional struggles within the government, for instance, and was even defunded for a time after we arrived; the institutions failed to pay our wages for nearly three months, which was a serious issue for the kind of precarious scholar-activists that make up the research team.</div></br><div>However, in March (when one of the sides in the dispute lost, i.e. the initial sponsor <a href="http://www.elciudadano.gob.ec/new-left-review-se-presento-en-ecuador/">Carlos Prieto</a>, rector of the IAEN), we got renewed commitment from the other two institutions. Since then political support has increased, and the summit is about to get underway.</div></br><div>As for Gordon, he became a victim of what we will politely call a series of misinterpreted engagements for the funding of his participation, and it is entirely understandable that he has become critical of the process.</div></br><div>The truth is that the project was hugely contradictory in many different ways, but this is the reality of the political world everywhere, not just in Ecuador.</div></br><div>Indeed, the Ecuadorian government is itself engaged in sometimes contradictory policies and is perceived by civil society to have abandoned many of the early ideas of the civic movement that brought it to power. So, in our attempts at broader participation we have been stifled by the distrust many civic activists have for the government, and the sincerity of our project has been doubted.</div></br><div>Additionally, social P2P dynamics, which of course exist as in many other countries, are not particularly developed in their modern, digitally empowered forms in Ecuador. It has also not helped that the management of the project has been such that the research team has not been able to directly connect with the political leaders in order to test their real engagement. This has been hugely frustrating.</div></br><div>On the positive side, we have been entirely free to conduct our research and formulate our proposals, and it is hard not to believe that the level of funding the project has received reflects a certain degree of commitment.</div></br><div>So the summit is back on track, and we have received renewed commitments. Clearly, however, the proof of the pudding will be in the summit and its aftermath.</div></br><div></div></br><div>Whatever the eventual outcome, it has always been my conviction that the formulation of the first ever integrated Commons Transition Plan (which your readers will find <a href="http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan">here</a>) legitimised by a nation-state, takes the P2P and commons movement to a higher geopolitical plane. As such, it can be seen as part of the global maturation of the P2P/commons approach, even if it turns out not to work entirely in Ecuador itself.<b><i></i></b></div></br><div><b><i>RP: I believe that one of the issues that has arisen in putting together the FLOK proposals is that Ecuadorians who live in rural areas are concerned that a system based on sharing could see their traditional knowledge appropriated by private interests. Can you say something about this fear and how you believe your plan can address such concerns?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> As you are aware, traditional communities have suffered from systematic <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/biopiracy">biopiracy</a> over the last few decades, with western scientists studying their botanical knowledge, extracting patentable scientific results from it, and then commercialising it in the West.</div></br><div>So fully shareable licenses like the GPL would keep the knowledge in a commons, but would still allow full commercialisation without material benefits flowing back to Ecuador. So what we are proposing is a discussion about a new type of licensing, which we call <a href="http://p2pfoundation.net/Peer_Production_License">Commons-Based Reciprocity Licensing</a>. This idea was first pioneered with the Peer Production License as conceived by <a href="http://www.dmytri.info/">Dmytri Kleiner</a>.</div></br><div>Such licences would be designed for a particular usage, say biodiversity research in a series of traditional communities. It allows for free sharing non-commercially, commercial use by not-for-profit entities, and even caters for for-profit entities who contribute back. Importantly, it creates a frontier for for-profits who do not contribute back, and asks them to pay.</div></br><div>What is key here is not just the potential financial flow, but to introduce the principle of reciprocity in the marketplace, thereby creating an ethical economy. The idea is that traditional communities can create their own ethical vehicles, and create an economy from which they can also benefit, and under their control.</div></br><div>This concept is beginning to get attention from open machining communities. However, the debate in Ecuador is only starting. Paradoxically, traditional communities are today either looking for traditional IP protection, which doesn’t really work for them, or for no-sharing options.</div></br><div>So we really need to develop intermediary ethical solutions for them that can benefit them while also putting them in the driving seat.</div></br><h2>Fundamental reversal of our civilisation</h2></br><h2></h2></br><div><b><i>RP: In today’s global economy, where practically everyone and everything seems to be interconnected and subject to the rules of neoliberalism and the market, is it really possible for a country like Ecuador to go off in such a different direction on its own? </i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> A full transition is indeed probably a global affair, but the micro-transitions need to happen at the grassroots, and a progressive government would be able to create exemplary policies and projects that show the way.</div></br><div>Ecuador is in a precarious neo-colonial predicament and subject to the pressures of the global market and the internal social groups that are aligned with it. There are clear signs that since 2010 the Ecuadorian government has moved away from the original radical ideas expressed in the Constitution and the National Plan, as we hear from nearly every single civic movement that we’ve spoken with.</div></br><div>The move for a social knowledge economy is of strategic importance to de-colonialise Ecuador but this doesn’t mean it will actually happen. However, the progressive forces have not disappeared entirely from the government institutions.</div></br><div>As such, it is really difficult to predict how successful this project will be. But as I say, given the investment the government has made in the process we believe there will be some progress. My personal view is that the combination of our political and theoretical achievements, and the existence of the policy papers, means that even with moderate progress in the laws and on the ground, we can be happy that we will have made a difference.</div></br><div>So most likely the local situation will turn out to be a hybrid mix of acceptance and refusal of our proposals, and most certainly the situation is not mature enough to accept the underlying logic of our Commons Transition Plan <i>in toto</i>.</div></br><div>In other words, the publication and the dialogue about the plan itself, and some concrete actions, legislative frameworks, and pilot projects, are the best we can hope for. What this will do is give real legitimacy to our approach and move the commons transition to the geo-political stage. Can we hope for more?</div></br><div>Personally, I believe that even if only 20% of our proposals are retained for action, I think we can consider it a relative success. This is the very first time such an even partial transition will have happened at the scale of the nation and, as I see it, it gives legitimacy to a whole new set of ideas about societal transition. So I believe it is worthy of our engagement.</div></br><div>We have to accept that the realities of power politics are incompatible with the expectations of a clean process for such a fundamental policy change. But we hope that some essential proposals of the project will make a difference, both for the people of Ecuador and all those that are watching the project.</div></br><div>For the future though, I have to say I seriously question the idea of trying to “hack a society” which was the initial philosophy of the project and of the people who hired us. You can’t hack a society, since a society is not an executable program. Political change needs a social and political basis, and it was very weak from the start in this case.</div></br><div>This is why I believe that future projects should first focus on the lower levels of political organisation, such as cities and regions, where politics is closer to the needs of the population. History though, is always full of surprises, and bold gambles can yield results. So FLOK may yet surprise the sceptics.</div></br><div><b><i>RP: If Ecuador did adopt your plan (or a significant part of it), what in your view would be the implications, for Ecuador, for other countries, and for the various free and open movements? What would be the implications if none of it were adopted?</i></b></div></br><div><b>MB:</b> As I say, at this stage I see only the possibility of a few legal advances and some pilot projects as the best case scenario. These, however, would be important seeds for Ecuador, and would give extra credibility to our effort.</div></br><div>I realise it may surprise you to hear me say it, but I don’t see this as crucial. I say this because, we already have thousands of projects in the world that are engaged in peer production and commons transitions, and this deep trend is not going to change. The efforts to change the social and economic logic will go on with or without Ecuador.</div></br><div>As I noted, what we have now that we didn’t have before, regardless of implementation in Ecuador, is the first global commons-oriented transition plan, and several concrete legislative proposals. They are far from perfect, but they will be a reference that other locales, cities, (bio)regions and states will be able to make their own adapted versions of it.</div></br><div>In the meantime, we have to continue the grassroots transformation and rebuild commons-oriented coalitions at every level, local, regional, national, global. This will take time, but since infinite growth is not possible in a finite economy, some type of transition is inevitable. Let’s just hope it will be for the benefit of the commoners and the majority of the world population.</div></br><div>Essentially, we need to build the seed forms of the new counter-economy, and the social movement that can defend, facilitate and expand it. Every political and policy expression of this is a bonus.</div></br><div>As for the endgame, you guessed correctly. What distinguishes the effort of the P2P Foundation, and many of the FLOK researchers, is that we’re not just in the business of adding some commons and P2P dynamics to the existing capitalist framework, but aiming at a profound “phase transition”.</div></br><div>To work for a sustainable society and economy is absolutely crucial for the future of humanity, and while we respect the freedoms of people to engage in market dynamics for the allocation of rival goods, we cannot afford a system of infinite growth and scarcity engineering, which is what capitalism is.</div></br><div>In other words, today, we consider nature infinite and we believe that infinite resources should be made scarce in order to protect monopolistic players; tomorrow, we need to consider nature as a finite resource, and we should respect the abundance of nature and the human spirit.</div></br><div>So our endgame is to achieve that fundamental reversal of our civilisation, nothing less. As you can see from our proposals, we aim for a simultaneous transformation of civil society, the market and public authorities. And we do this without inventing or imposing utopias, but by extending the working prototypes from the commoners and peer producers themselves.</div></br><p><b><i>RP: Thanks for speaking with me.

  • Chargement/Site  + (<p>Les 11 et 12 novembre derniers, l<p>Les 11 et 12 novembre derniers, le <a href="http://www.deeep.org">projet DEEEP</a>, un programme co-financé par l’Union européenne, a rassemblé à Johannesburg (Afrique du Sud) 200 militants venus du monde entier, pour repenser le cadre d’action de ONG de développement et engager la construction d’un « mouvement citoyen mondial ». Cette rencontre est le point de départ d’un processus qui durera deux ans de mobilisation citoyenne pour le changement et la justice globale. Une <a href="http://movement.deeep.org">plateforme numérique</a> lui est dédiée. Au cours de cette conférence, les participants ont commencé à tirer les leçons de l’action de la société civile, de ses modes d’organisation et d’action dans différents domaines à travers le monde et produit un document,<a href="http://www.deeep.org/component/content/article/395.html"> « The Johannesburg Compass: Questions and orientations » (Boussole de Johannesburg) </a> pour définir les principes qui pourraient guider les travaux des deux prochaines années. </p></br><p>Invité à participer à ce processus, j’ai pu contribuer aux discussions et à la rédaction du texte pour le nourrir autant que possible de la notion des communs. Pensé au départ comme une déclaration de principes appuyée sur une vision partagée, ce document est devenu un guide pour le processus lui-même, basé sur quelques idées fortes telles que la nécessité de dé-coloniser nos esprits et dé-institutionnaliser les organisations du développement. Le résultat reflète la volonté de renouvellement à la fois des formes et des contenus de l’action, mais laisse sans réponse, au moins pour l’instant, les interrogations sur la nature d’un mouvement citoyen mondial si c’en est un, et sur la nature du processus des deux années de travail qui s’engagent à la suite de cette conférence. </p></br><p>Alors comment l’idée des communs pourrait-elle nourrir cette démarche ? Au-delà du processus d’écriture, le contenu du texte est assez général et plutôt généreux. Les communs y sont considérés comme des ressources à gérer. Le texte appelle à revendiquer les communs « reclaim, protect and nurture our commons », et à gérer les ressources comme des « propriétés communes » (the earth’s natural environment, ecosystems and knowledge are common property, and should be managed for the common good). Il appelle au respect de ces ressources mais ignore la dimension participative des communs. On est encore assez loin de considérer les biens communs comme des processus qui permettent de faire société, et donc comme un moyen de renforcement des communautés, d’émancipation dont les ONG pourraient se saisir pour refonder leur mode d’action.</p></br><p>Il me semble qu’aujourd’hui, un mouvement mondial de citoyens devrait révolutionner la manière pour chacun d’exercer sa citoyenneté, et d’en avoir conscience. L’un des rôles des ONG et des CSO ne devrait-il pas être de prendre en compte et accompagner la politisation de la vie quotidienne dans le domaine de la santé, de l’alimentation, de l’éducation, du travail, …. etc, en les inscrivant dans la perspective des biens communs ? Comment faire cela à une échelle massive ? Sans que cela exclue la conduite de campagnes d’action sur des objectifs stratégiques à l’échelle régionale ou mondiale, par les organisations qui composent l’infrastructure de la société civile, il s’agit de renouveler et d’articuler ce qu’en France on appelle l’éducation populaire en s’appuyant sur les pratiques sociales de voisinage et celles médiatisées par les réseaux informatiques. Une telle dynamique permettrait que chacun s’inscrive dans une perspective plus large et de donner sens pour chacun à l’agenda international. L’enjeu est donc de construire des ponts avec les multiples communautés d’appartenance, non pas pour leur offrir le leadership des ONG ou des mouvements, mais pour reconnaître et légitimer leurs leaderships aux différents échelles d’exercice du pouvoir (du local au mondial). </p></br><p>A entendre les participants à la conférence de Johannesbourg, on dirait qu’il faut en passer aussi par la (re)découverte des communs au sein même des organisations (ce qui fait projet commun), quelque soit leur taille ou leur objet pour les refonder. Cela peut être une perspective à l’échelle de l’organisation (ONG/OCS) pour poursuivre le travail engagé à Johburg. Dans ce sens, mieux vaudra nommer et travailler sur SES communs que définir LES communs et essayer de transformer les organisations en travaillant sur leurs valeurs, leur projet et actions plutôt que de chercher un cadre théorique ou idéologique général. </p></br><p>Une autre piste consiste à partager les leçons des activistes des communs immatériels et de la connaissance, qui depuis l’émergence de l’informatique ont su construire un mouvement qui défend ses valeurs, des formes de collaboration distribuées, l’ouverture et la liberté, le partage et la solidarité, l’émancipation personnelle et la participation au collectif, l’agir à petite échelle tout en s’inscrivant dans une vision universelle. Ce mouvement est globalement invisible en tant que mouvement pour les personnes qui n’en sont pas les militants. Chacun utilise des logiciels libres, accède à la culture et au savoir libre, la plupart du temps sans y prêter attention. Pourtant les organisations du savoir et de la culture libre se sont structurées et sont des « ONG » ou des « OCS » de poids. Il suffit pour s’en rendre compte de considérer les plus visibles du public comme wikimédia fondation, ou le poids de ce mouvement dans le secteur industriel (IBM, Android, …) ou encore le travail des groupes de pression (EFF, Quadrature du net, …) pour s’en rendre compte. C’est un mouvement à maturité. Cette expérience et la culture qu’elle développe vaut la peine d’être partagée. Ne serait-il pas utile de penser un mouvement équivalent dans le domaine des communs matériels, urbains, ruraux et naturels ? </p></br><p>Frédéric Sultan </p>)

The context of the event was remarkable; for two months already an unprecedented social movement initiated and driven by students had taken over the streets of Montreal and other cities in the province, mobilizing people across all layers of society with unrivaled levels of involvement. And on this 19th of April, during what was called a “printemps érable” (or maple spring), and rightly so by the depth of its demands, on the eve of the march for Earth Day, reaching what would be the climax of the union of all sectors of the civil society, the protest was held under no other theme but the Commons and gathered nearly 300 000 people. This lunch was indeed very relevant at a time when « the Commons was on every lips », a paper issued by Communautique was widely circulated on the web.<br /></br>Prior to this first of a series of four in 2012, Communautique had contributed to the animation of this subject of the Commons on various occasions by organizing workshops or taking part in events in the charged ambiance of the student protests, particularly suited for participation and innovation.<br /></br>Each of the meetings facilitated the exchange of knowledge in a horizontal way through discussions and « learning circles » following a proven animation methodology that is increasingly used in co-creation, co-design projects and bottom-up social innovation.

You have heard talk of it as one of the flagship European initiatives for the reconquest of the city by its inhabitants. </p></br><p>Commons Josaphat needs support from commoners to assert the work that has been accomplished over the course of the last 2 years with the public authorities in Brussels. </p></br><p>Show your support by sending your message directly to the collective. </p></blockquote></br><p><img decoding="async" src="http://vecam.org/local/cache-vignettes/L566xH800/commons_josaphat-2da3d.png?1472031936" alt="" /></p></br><p><H1>The common good neighborhood project </H1></p></br><p>Commons Josaphat wants to build a proposal for the development of the city as a commons on the vacant lot of the former Josaphat training station. A new part of town will be developed there in the coming years. The challenge is to transform this piece of land, which is public property, into territory where a city for the common good can be started and established, a city district imagined and developed through partnership between the public authorities and the citizens. Our proposal, the results of two years of exchange and reflection in common, is summarized <a href="https://commonsjosaphat.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/commons-josaphat_josaphat-en-commun01light.pdf">in this document</a>. </p></br><p><H1>Commons Josaphat today</H1></p></br><p>The collective continues to work in three main ways:</p></br><p>Effective occupation of the lot with other partners aiming to “make” this city as a commons, to immediately occupy its squares and spaces by using them. The agreement which places usage limits on individuals in order to preserve others’ use and access is an innovative first experience in the field for a new governance;</p></br><p>Development of an “example island” of commons. This island should shape the city in common (through accessibility to the largest number of people over the long run, collective decision-making on land rents, environmental integration, promotion of the solidarity economy and open source, inscribing values of health in the design of the city, anchoring in local neighborhoods…) But it must also be realistic about the needs of public authorities (revenues generated, realization times and amounts realized). This island should serve as a point of evaluation that follows the issuing of the first phase of the master plan for the region; </p></br><p>Building broad political conviction</p></br><li>1. Strengthening social support to the “Josaphat in common” proposal: support of associations, academics, intellectuals, unions, mutual societies<br /></br>2. Strengthening cooperation with local residents to involve all those concerned in this part of town today<br /></br>3. Improving conventional political support: obtain the support of PS, MR, ToT, Ecolo, PTB and CDH and their Dutch counterparts at regional and municipal levels.</br></li></br><p><H1>Here we reproduce their call</H1></p></br><p>You’ve heard of Commons Josaphat over the last two years, as they’ve been organizing action with partners – by participating in the call for ideas for the future development of the area or through the working groups themselves.<br /></br>Maybe you practiced fallow during the current summer festival or are participating in conferences organized around the possibility to construct the city as a commons. </p></br><p>Today we want to shed light on these examples of support, convergence, and cooperation around the production of the city as a commons, and give it weight in public debate!</p></br><p><H1>What can you do? </H1><br /></br>To show your support:<br /></br>Send an email to: <a href="mailto:ideascommonsjosaphat@gmail.com">ideascommonsjosaphat@gmail.com</a></p></br><p>Associations like BRAL, Pass-âge, RBDH (Rally for the right to housing), les Equipes Populaires de Schaerbeek, and SACOPAR (Health community participation non-profit association) have already done so.

  • Chargement/Site  + (<p>Project « Justice transitionnelle<p>Project « Justice transitionnelle: l’expérience Marocaine » plans to share those extremely important Moroccan experiences about transitional justice and community reparation. </p></br><p>In Morocco, from 1959 to 1999, Former King Hassan II often ruled his country with an iron fist. That period is called as the years of lead in Morocco, during which those who were considered a threat to the regime were subject to a wide range of human rights violations. Thousands were subjected to arbitrary arrest, torture, and enforced disappearance, leaving behind a bitter legacy.</p></br><p>However, starting in the early 1990s, a gradual process of dealing with the past began to take root, culminating most recently in the work of the Moroccan Equity and Reconciliation Commission (Instance Équité et Réconciliation (IER)), established by the successor to the throne, King Mohammed VI.</p></br><p>On January 7, 2004, the IER was created, which is the first truth commission in the Arab world. This also has been hailed internationally as a big step forward, and an example to the Arab world. Since that, the IER has been working on addressing the terrible legacy of this era by investigating some of the worst abuses in Morocco and arranging reparations for victims and their families.</p></br><p>Over the duration of its mandate, the IER has amassed an archive of more than 20,000 personal testimonies from victims and their families, which has been organized in a central database in Rabat. It has conducted a range of meetings, conferences, and seminars around a multitude of issues that are keys to understanding Morocco’s past and present.</p></br><p>It has also taken the monumental step of holding public hearings to give victims a platform from which to share their sufferings. Throughout its work, the Commission has aimed to document, preserve, and analyze the roots of the crisis in an attempt to help Morocco come to terms with its past. </p></br><p>Project Justice transitionnelle: l’expérience Marocaine aims to share videos about this process of transitional justice and community reparation. For Morocco, the Community Reparation Project is a huge project contributed to transitional justice. A total sum of 159 million Dirhams was mobilized and total number of completed projects was 149.</p></br><p>These videos talked about how to preserve memory of victim communities during “the years of lead” in Morocco and what kinds of public hearings took place, in fact those hearings gave the highlight of an extensive process of citizen deliberation, compassion and free expression in Morocco. They also talked about lots of stories about how community reparation project aimed to improve the living conditions of the people in victim communities and empower them. In fact, those materials mainly focused on women and children.</p></br><p>Project Justice transitionnelle: l’expérience Marocaine believes Moroccan experiences in transitional justice as commons are useful and valuable to other countries, especially to Arabic countries have the similar history of transitional justice, such as Iraq, Egypt, Tunisia, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Algeria and so on.</p></br><p>As open resources, these documentaries, videos and reports are free to use for the public goods. </p></br><h3>Futur development</h3></br><p>In the next step, Project Justice transitionnelle: l’expérience Marocaine will keep on sharing more historical videos and materials about experiences in transitional justice, such as the videos of public hearings, the videos of public seminars and conferences, historical pictures and final reports of the community reparation project.</p></br><h3>People involved</h3></br><p>Ning and Mohamed Leghtas, from Alternatives Forum in Morocco(FMAS) and Portail E-joussour take in charge of this project, which both based in Rabat, Morroco.</p></br><h3>Ressources</h3></br><p>The project Transitional Justice: the Moroccan experience is financed by the funds of the Equity and Reconciliation Commission (IER)</p></br><h3>Contribution to the projet « Justice transitionnelle</h3></br><p>Alternatives Forum in Morocco(FMAS) and Portail E-joussour take in charge of this project, which both based in Rabat, Morroco.</p>IER)</p> <h3>Contribution to the projet « Justice transitionnelle</h3> <p>Alternatives Forum in Morocco(FMAS) and Portail E-joussour take in charge of this project, which both based in Rabat, Morroco.</p>)
