The Commoner began in 2001 and went into hiatus at some point after the 2012 issue on care work, domestic labour and social reproduction.
On MayDay in 2020 the work to relaunch began slowly, by excavating the material of the original site from the useful WayBackMachine and building this new site. Here we have links to all the back issues of The Commoner for you to enjoy – historical reading that’s more relevant than ever, as converging crises loom large – war, biodiversity, cost of living, climate, rise of populist, authoritarian regimes and so on. The strategy remains the same, Commoning can set us free.
