title: Commoning Care
has_sessions:
----
Both “commoning” and “care” are concepts around which many thoughts (and practices) have produced and grown in the last decades. Therefore to bring these terms together, it is risky – indeed may sound confusing – but it is also a strategy to create a perspective, a viewpoint through which to navigate these concepts without making them abstract and consequently delivering its uses to capitalistic moves. This reterritorialization happens frequently; let’s think to terms such as "queer" or "participation" (to cite a few), which have been quickly taken by markets investment strategies and state controlling practices on propriety. However, the battle on language never settles: we always lose and take back concepts, inventing and reinventing meanings and perspective through which a word shows its worlds.
Thus, instead of trying to give a stable then imprecise definition to “Commoning Care”, I prefer following some citations which I find useful to explore these terms and its possible meanings when conjoined:
> “Care is everything that is done (rather than everything that “we” do) to maintain, continue, and repair “the world” so that all (rather than “we”) can live in it as well as possible. That world includes . . . all that we seek to interweave in a complex, life-sustaining web (modified from Tronto 1993, 103).” - Maria Puig de la Bellacasa
