The latest thematic edition of the Green European Journal investigates the commons and reveals the wide-ranging spectrum of definitions and applications of this concept that exist across Europe. Yet from the numerous local initiatives, social movements and governance models associated with this term – is it possible to identify the outline of a commons-based approach that could form the basis of a broad cross-societal response to the failures of the current system? The edition also includes an interview with Tine de Moor, President of IASC and Professor in “Institutions for Collective Action in Historical Perspective” at the department for social and economic history of Utrecht University.
