The International Journal of the Commons is devoted to understanding and improving institutions for the management of resources that are (or could be) held or used collectively. Many will refer to such resources and their systems of usage as 'commons'. The resources may be part of the natural world used by humans or they may emerge from the social realities created by humans, such as the Internet or our stock of knowledge. The journal aims at forming a forum for researchers working on resources that can be or are used and managed collectively. The journal was set up on the initiative of the International Association for the Study of the Commons. The editors of the IJC welcome contributions from all scientific disciplines, from practitioners and policy makers. Submissions will be judged upon their quality, methodology, approach and suitability for the journal.
