While many have awakened to the fundamental problems of our market-state economy, few have offered systemic solutions. Kosmos has supported the commons movement for over 5 years. Why? Because it offers a viable solution to the tyranny of our economic and governance systems. And it is working! The Commons recognizes three forms of goods/resources: Public Goods, managed by governments, Private Goods, managed by corporations, and Common Goods, belonging to and managed by the People. It respects the well-being of people, the sacredness of the planet in the face of growing exploitation and enclosure/privatization of the world’s resources.
