Commons
The concept of Commons refers to a resource that is owned collectively by a group of people. It is a term often used in the context of Lawrence Lessig, a prominent legal scholar and advocate for open access and the free exchange of information. Lessig argues that the Commons is a crucial component of a healthy society, as it allows for the sharing and collaboration of resources for the benefit of all. In his work, he explores the ways in which the Commons can be protected and preserved, and how it can be harnessed to promote innovation and creativity.
