Abstract: The P2P Foundation is a observatory of and a trans-national network of researchers and activists around the emerging practices around peer production, peer property and peer governance. In the last ten years we have developed a set of integrated proposals for a set of transition policies towards a commons-centric society and economy. The following essay aims to bring an overview of this approach which combines both politcs and economics. These proposals and strategy are outlined in figure 1 and this text aims to systematically explain this summary graphic. We explain this in two parts, corresponding to the horizontal blocks in the graphic representation, i.e. we first discuss the economics of the commons, and then proceed to its politics. The third part is a dynamic and short summary of our transition proposals in the context of a ‘society-in-movement’ through both prefigurative practices and progressive political majorities aligned around a commons transition program.
