I wanted to share our latest article. It lays out the argument for commons (and P2P) based political alternatives, not as a hopeful dream, but something that is already happening and reorienting power. Centered on Spain's municipalist coalitions and leading to the vision of a commons-enabling State, it also features the ECA as an essential component for such a transition. Check it out http://commonstransition.org/commons-time-monsters/ Here's an extract: "In the same way that prefigurative strategies incorporate social and
environmental priorities into their informal constitutions, without waiting for markets or state to deal with such ‘externalities’, the municipalist ethical code can form the kernel of a set of political guidelines to be hard-coded into commons-oriented coalition principles, bringing fresh accountability to contemporary politics. "
Please read, comment and share! I hope to see many of you this weekend in Barcelona. Also, much love and solidarity to all our brothers and sisters in Athens (and to everyone who couldn't make it).
