'Lucid, sophisticated and suggestive ... this book will certainly speak to the many activist researchers who today are vitally interested in the construction of commoning activities, new forms of anti-capitalist strategies, and the new relationship between local and global struggles.'- Andrej Grubacic, Director and founder of the Anthropology and Social Change department at the California Institute of Integral Studies, San Francisco
