Summary:

"In recent years, the concept of commons has gained popularity, as it promises a more participatory form of governance than state tutelage, and more equity in addressing human needs than the market. This publication explores the struggle for urban commons through a variety of case studies from Berlin to Hyderabad, Santiago and Seoul and asks what is specifically 'urban' about them."--Page [4] of cover.
