Subject: Out today! Commons Transition, Illustrated - Our New Web Primer
To:


​Dear friends and colleagues,

Today, we’re happy to share with you our recently completed project, the Commons Transition Primer website, with new and adapted texts by P2P Foundation members (including its founder, Michel Bauwens and our colleagues in the P2P Lab). Featuring specially commissioned illustrations and infographics, this Primer emphasizes the value of P2P and Commons approaches to work, politics, production and culture.

Our intention with this site is to make the ideas of the Commons and P2P accessible and attractive to commoners and communities worldwide. The site is organized into several sections:


  1. Short: Q&A-style illustrated articles presenting some of the P2P Foundation’s main positions

  2. Long: In-depth, longer articles

  3. Library: Downloadable PDF versions of P2P Foundation research publications

  4. More: Video, audio and other content, plus site information and other links


​
​
We’ve built some other useful features into this site, too. In the Short articles, Key Concept pop-ups offer definitions of specialized terminology.
​​
Case Studies outline the practices of existing commons communities, often adapted from our own research publications.
​​
Infographics and
​​
illustrations have sections of their own, for easy sharing. To keep things light, we’ve added a tab with a
​​
“TLDR” summary (internet slang for “too long/didn’t read”, if you didn’t already know), plus a tab for Resources which links to source and reference materials for the specific article.


​​​
​​
​
​​
This website was produced with the support of the
​​
 Heinrich Böll Foundation, and is an outgrowth of our previous Commons Transition and P2P Primer
​​
in print
​​
form, which was co-authored with Michel Bauwens and Vasilis Kostakis and produced in cooperation with the
​​
Transnational Institute (TNI).


​
​​​​
We hope you enjoy
​​
the Commons Transition Primer and we encourage you to share this email with your friends, family or colleagues. Alternatively, you can share the social media links below
