Abstract

We use an ideal-type approach to analyse ‘interstices’ in which emancipation could appear. The question is how use value can escape from the domination of exchange value, and how could we promote another kind of private property freed from capital. In particular we critique the assimilation of the firm to the company. We refer to the research based on the ‘commons’ to open new proposals, in particular one concerning finance as a commons.
