“ In P2P James Burke reports: "Stefan Meretz has produced, with his daughter, a very useful and clear taxonomy of common goods, according to five criteria." viz:— P2P Foundation » Blog Archive » Commons in a taxonomy of goods"Commons are common pool resources. Commons are common goods. Commons are social relationships. You can find all of these descriptions for the term. Which is the correct one? All three versions are valid—at the same time! The word „common“ is the best starting point for the analysis. The common thing within a commons are the resources, which are used and cared for, are the goods resulting from joint activities, and are the social relationships emerging from acting together. These three aspects are so different for all commons, that no one could describe them in a reasonably complete manner."”
