'One of the most important books I've read in years' Brian EnoWe are losing the commons. Austerity and neoliberal policies have depleted our shared wealth; our national utilities have been sold off to foreign conglomerates, social housing is almost non-existent, our parks are cordoned off for private events and our national art galleries are sponsored by banks and oil companies. This plunder deprives us all of our common rights, recognized as far back as the Magna Carta and the Charter of the Forest of 1217, to share fairly and equitably in our public wealth.

Guy Standing leads us through a new appraisal of the commons, stemming from the medieval concept of common land reserved in ancient law from marauding barons, to his modern reappraisal of the resources we all hold in common - a brilliant new synthesis that crystallises quite how much public wealth has been redirected to the 1% in recent decades through the state-approved exploitation of everything from our land to our state housing, health and benefit systems, to our justice system, schools, newspapers and even the air we breathe. Plunder of the Commons proposes a charter for a new form of commoning, of remembering, guarding and sharing that which belongs to us all, to slash inequality and soothe our current political instability.

Best gift I gave my wife in a long time!
Size: One Size, Color: Parchment Multi, Size: One Size, Color: Parchment Multi
As someone who has never purchased a purse before, I wanted to get my wife something special for her birthday. I know she loves Kate Spade products for their excellent quality, so I decided to go with one of their purses. I’ll admit, I was a bit shocked at the price initially, but given its designer status and popularity, I should have expected it. When the purse arrived, I immediately understood why it’s priced the way it is. The craftsmanship, from the stitching to the overall quality, truly stands out. The difference between this and a purse from a big-box store is remarkable. Needless to say, my wife absolutely loved it. For a purse to impress both her and me, it’s an easy five-star rating!
