A claim from [[George Monbiot]] as quoted in [[Free, Fair and Alive]].
A [[commons]] is a [[politics of belonging]].
Columnist George Monbiot has summed up the virtues of the commons nicely: βA commons β¦ gives community life a clear focus. It depends on democracy in its truest form. It destroys inequality. It provides an incentive to protect the living world. It creates, in sum, a politics of belonging.β

I don’t fully know what a politics of belonging is. But I can see how commons fosters belonging.
