Protection of the Commons: Quilligan Seminars

One of the central themes in Charles Eisenstein's bestseller Sacred Economics is the Commons. James Quilligan, an internationally known policy consultant and economist, who has recently led a highly acclaimed seminar series in London on The Emergence of Commons-based Economy, has the development and protection of the Commons in the centre of his professional work.


Here is an outline of the series of Quilligan seminars. The debategraph, the rawfootage of all the 12 seminars as well as the talking points and introductions are here and reflections by a participant are here. You will also find all the above links as well as other related ones here.

A further series of five Quilligan Seminars to be held from October 22-26^th will all deal with the currency of life and the understanding of gift in relation to the preventing of new enclosures and the protection of the commons. 

This series, at present, will consider:

• 'Recovery of the Commons evolving around us' - Mutualising land and capital into commons bodies for community benefit and individual enterprise.
• ‘A Roadmap to sustainable community based healthcare and how together we will make it work’ - Raising awareness of our possibilities for generative action in healthcare. Creating Connections for sustained shared attention and structures of engagement for doing what needs to be done to make sustainable healthcare possible.
• ‘Establishing an Economic System that protects the Commons’ - Plenary and work-groups on Tax, Money, Financial Sector. 
• ‘Enhancing the range and recruitment of a critical mass.’
• Conferences on Money and Alternative Currencies with Thomas Greco, (being planned by LETSlinkUK - http://www.letslinkuk.net/).  Details at this stage from london@letslink.org.
• Book Launch of Fred Harrison’s ‘The Traumatised Society’ at St James Piccadilly, 3.00 - 5.00pm.
