The commons is the cultural and natural resources accessible to all members of a society, including natural materials such as air, water, and a habitable earth. These resources are held in common, not owned privately.
The term "commons" derives from the traditional English legal term of common land, also known colloquially as "Commons". However, while common land might have been owned collectively, by a legal entity, the crown or a single person, it was subject to different forms of regulated usage, such as grazing of livestock, hunting, lopping of foliage or collecting resins. In distinction, the term commons in modern economic theory has come to refer to the cultural and natural resources accessible to all members of a society, such as air, water, and a habitable earth.
A failure (tragedy of the commons) was a widespread metaphor of early economics, which came up in the 18th centuries. Early econonomic writers and scientists were supporters of the British Agricultural Revolution and Land reform laws and were in favour of unified ownership of the land. They tried to get rid of the traditional usage rights of the commoners and used the tragedy of the commons as a suitable metaphor. They quoted, among others, Aristotle's polemic against the Polis of Platon in the sense of "everybody's property is nobody's property" and respectively "the most common good is the least guarded". The conflict around the dissolution of the traditional commons played a watershed role in landscape development and cooperative land use patterns and property rights. Among others, pamphlets as of 1833 by William Forster Lloyd on herders overusing a shared parcel of land on which they are each entitled to let their cows graze became part of the common wisdom in economics. The same concept is sometimes called the "tragedy of the fishers", because fishing too many fish before or during breeding could cause stocks to plummet.

David Cameron gives a statement to the House of Commons about the Europe referendum.
The semantics of the model I'm working from use common goods/common property/ common pool resources (resources used by multiple people) and common property regimes (the institutions or social arrangements between people, the property rights regarding common pool resources). We were taught that "the commons" is sort of an old term. It has issues because it blankets both common pool resources with no communication, no rules, no accountability, no punishment for those who break the rules, etc. (open access) and common pool resources with some cooperation or institution in place (common property regimes). When you get away from those aspects that allow people to trust one another and work together, the system looks like an open access system. The tragedy of the commons model describes wha...
Labour MP Dennis Skinner has been suspended from Parliament for the day for calling the Prime Minister "dodgy Dave". He was speaking in the Commons after David Cameron went there to defend his own financial affairs in the wake of the so-called Panama Papers scandal. The Commons Speaker John Bercow asked Dennis Skinner to withdraw his use of the term "dodgy" but the MP repeated the word - forcing Mr Bercow to eject him from the Commons.

Jesse Manibusan performs Sarah Hart’s new ballad on the Holy Spirit, who breathes mercy upon us and empowers us as the Body of Christ. Appropriate for the Year of Mercy, this song will be a favorite for Pentecost and Confirmation.
Those who claim that we need the State to take care of the environment, protect the lakes, streams, rivers, forests, and declare National/State Parks are unconsciously committing various logical fallacies such as the appeal to antiquity, appeal to authority, false dichotomy, and tragedy of the commons. The tragedy of the commons is the brooch that characterizes all "public property". It demonstrates how human action is directly affected with an alteration in the incentives. When everyone "owns" a particular piece of land, forest, lake, stream, or river, it is the same as if nobody owns it. When nobody owns something there is no vested interest towards preservation and conservation. Therefore everyone seeks to use that natural resource to its fullest capacity without thought of the future...

You can read the script here: http://theleftlibertarian.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/the-commons-beyond-the-state-capitalism-and-the-market/ Notes 1. One common objection with the term "inherited the earth," is the assumption that to inherit something, implies a previous owner. There is also Proudhon's term "property is theft" which is sometimes criticized on the same ground. However, the term has a deeper insight and should be understood on the grounds that property can be "put aside" or misused. For further clarification, see Shawn Wilbur's discussion on the issue: http://libertarian-labyrinth.blogspot.com/2011/12/varieties-of-theft-and-property.html 2. Kratzwalk, B. (2012).

Keynote Lecture by Professor Yochai Benkler (Harvard Law School) at the IASC 2nd Thematic Conference on Knowledge Commons - Engelberg Center, New York University School of Law, September, 2014 According to Professor Yochai Benkler, the past three decades have seen the emergence and growth of rich literature on the commons, which challenged some of the intellectual foundations of financial, dehumanized form of late-twentieth-century capitalism. In his keynote lecture, Professor Benkler discusses how work on the commons pushed back against five core elements of such ideology. First, work of the Ostrom school beat back Olson-inspired skepticism about the possibility of self-organization, and has been extended to new areas by work of culturally reconstructed commons. Second, the Institutiona...
I know I'm real late in posting this, but since a lot of DCP things are happening right now I decided to finally put this up! Before my program in Spring 2015, I couldn't really find many videos on the Commons, so I really hope this helps! Don't be a stranger, send some questions my way! P.S. I'm sorry this video is sooooo long (and late) lol

Talk by Peter Linebaugh, Professor of History at the University of Toledo on "Magna Carta and the Commons" given March 13, 2009 at the Law of the Commons Conference at Seattle University and sponsored by the Seattle Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild. Check out the interview with Peter Linebaugh at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUhV3OtOOEM
Ted Heath, as Father of the House, chairs the debate for a new Speaker of the Commons. Speeches from Sir Michael Neubert, Sir Thomas Arnold, Tam Dalyell, Tony Benn, Nicholas Winterton, William Biffen, Gwyneth Dunwoody, Sir Russell Johnston, Robert Adley, John Major and Neil Kinnock. The choice was between Peter Brooke and Betty Boothroyd. Some very witty moments.
A resource that is owned by everyone is often neglected and poorly managed. John Stossel cites a number of historic examples, including the near death of one of the colonies after they chose communal "idealism" that led to poor crop yields.
This year marks the 800th anniversary of the signing of the Magna Carta, and this weeks show marks that occasion with a discussion on the rights of the commons with author Peter Linebaugh. We also visit a community center in Caracas, and hear from youth voices about life and revolution in Venezuela.
First you told us only through you could we know God
And if we dared to question then He wouldn't spare the rod
For you we worked the soil, for you we dug the moors
For you we shed our blood and fought so many pointless wars
And now you build your fences and say there's nothing we can do
You say the world around us belongs fairly to the few
But about six billion people no doubt will agree
This world is our home, not your property
It's the commons, our right of birth
And to you who would enclose the land all around the Earth
Our future is your downfall, when we cut this ball and chain
You who'd sacrifice the public good for your private gain
With our sweat we built the railroads, built cities on these shores
But because you own the money you say that it's all yours
We laid the phone lines and the pipelines and then right before our eyes
You say these things our taxes paid for you now will privatize
Privatize the hospitals, privatize the schools
Privatize the prisons for all those who break your rules
And preparing for the day when all the wells run dry
You say you own the very rain that falls down from the sky
But it's the commons, our right of birth
And to you who'd own the water all around the Earth
Our future is your downfall, when we cut this ball and chain
You who'd sacrifice the public good for your private gain
You claim to own the harvest with your terminator seeds
You claim to own the genomes of every animal that breeds
You claim to own our culture and the music that we play
And with every song we download to your coffers we must pay
You would even own my name and you say it's for the best
Maybe you'll let us on your radio stations if our songs can pass your test
You own country, you own western, you say you've given us a choice
You may own the airwaves but you'll never own my voice
It's the commons, our right of birth
And to you who'd own the music all around the Earth
Our future is your downfall, when we cut this ball and chain
You who'd sacrifice the public good for your private gain
It's the commons, our right of birth
And to you who would own everything all around the Earth
Our future is your downfall, when we cut this ball and chain
