Beskrivelse
Liminal Commons examines the making of temporary commoning ventures under conditions of crisis, using as a case study alternative grassroots ventures that have emerged in Greece during the last decade. Through exploration of grassroots projects such as occupied squares, solidarity clinics and pharmacies, cooperatives, workers' collectives, solidarity food structures and self-organized refugee camps, the book addresses issues of organization and subjectivity in commoning endeavours. Varvarousis explores the transformative potential of these experiences for individuals, groups, local societies and even countries. The book develops an original theoretical framework called ?the "liminal commons" which argues that there are ephemeral commons that act as modern rituals of transition, whereby people and collectives who on account of the crisis have lost their core identity search for and form new identities.
