Cities are undergoing a remarkable transformation driven by unexpected dynamics. The emergence and rapid growth of the digital economy have fundamentally reshaped the relationship between the urban fabric and its inhabitants, transcending the traditional hierarchical structure based on production priorities. Moreover, contemporary society is discovering innovative labor conditions and strategies to fulfill needs and desires by forging new synergies and connections.

This comprehensive book delves into cultural and urban commons from a multidisciplinary perspective. Economists, architects, urban planners, sociologists, designers, political scientists, and artists examine the profound impact and ramifications of cultural commons on urban transformation. The contributions explore both successful instances of urban participation and instances of significant social conflict, while also addressing a range of institutional contradictions and dilemmas.

The first part of the book explores urban commons in response to institutional constraints from a theoretical standpoint. The second and third parts apply the theoretical frameworks to case studies and discuss various practices of sustainable planning and re-appropriation within the urban context. In the concluding section, the fourth part imagines a new urban agenda as artists envision it.

This book is of immense interest to scholars seeking to understand the social, economic, and institutional implications of cultural and urban commons. It offers valuable insights and practical tools to assist local governments and policymakers in navigating social, cultural, and economic change effectively.
