The Post-political meaning of the concept of commons : the regulation of the urban commons in Bologna
Bianchi, Iolanda (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Govern i Polítiques Públiques)

Date: 2018
Abstract: The concept of Commons is an ambivalent one. While it has acquired politicised meanings, it has also acquired some de-politicised ones. This article analyses a case of de-politicisation of this concept, occurring at the urban scale in the Italian city of Bologna, where the City Council has recently adopted the 'Regulation for the Care and Regeneration of the Urban Commons' to promote a form of collaborative governance. Through an interpretative approach that uses critical discourse analysis, the article illustrates a form of post-politicisation of the concept that aims to suture the social space without fully succeeding. The article concludes by stressing the necessity and urgency of the struggle for the politicised meaning of the concept of Commons.
