[Articles] Commons and the New System: Searching for an Alternative / Lee Il-young
The Quarterly Changbi 178, Winter 2017
Abstract
Lee Il-young, in his article, examines the feature of the last issue, "The Commons and Publicness", and asks whether the discussion of commons can make us imagine the operating principles of a new system to overcome both marketism (free market fundamentalism) and statism. After reviewing those discussions on commons in regard with welfare system and a spatial fix, and what not, he focuses on the way to establish new commons in the process of new technological changes. In this context, 'Peace Commons' are particularly required in that they aim for at once the peaceful system in East Asia and the Korean peninsula and the development of new localization. We expect more discussions regarding commons to be continued with this as a momentum.
