Abstract

The commons are a new concept and a new institution that goes beyond old traditions such as communism, communitarianism, and communalist anarchism. Moreover, the theories of the commons imply a novelty compared to the classical notion of Common Good or to the historical commons. In the first place, they do not understand the commons as a sort of regulative horizon towards which society must tend --as is distilled from the concept of Common Good; secondly, they start from a materialist approach according to which the community is not something pre-existing for cultural or historical reasons --as communitarianism would mind-- but is the fruit of a shared activity. Given the number of studies that have been produced on the commons in recent years --reproductive commons, natural commons, urban commons, global commons, digital commons-- this issue proposes to analyze them from two approaches that have been less emphasized than others: on the one hand, it highlights the role of the commons in the Global South; on the other hand, it seeks to analyze the link between the commons and emerging rights.
