Alexandros Kioupkiolis re-conceptualises the common in tandem with the political. By engaging with key thinkers of community and the commons, including Nancy, Ostrom, Hardt and Negri, together with poststructuralist conceptions of agonism and hegemony from Mouffe and Laclau, he remedies problematic issues of power relations and division.
Breaks new ground by introducing agonistic theory and hegemony into the contemporary debate on the commons and community. Clarifies contemporary theory by engaging with present-day examples of the politics of the commons, including the governance of the digital commons, recent democratic mobilisations such as the Occupy movements and citizens'' municipal platforms of self-governance. Draws on the work of Jean-Luc Nancy, Chantal Mouffe, Elinor Ostrom, Hardt & Negri, and Ernesto Laclau.
