In this paper I present a critical overview of the contemporary political theories of the Commons, classified in three main categories: 1) the liberal 2) the reformist and 3) the anti-capitalist. Advocates of the liberal theory of the Commons take a stand in favour of the coexistence of the Commons with the state and the market. The reformists argue for the gradual adjustment of capitalism to the Commons with the aid of a partner state, while the anti-capitalists contrast both the liberals and the reformists by supporting the development of the commons against and beyond capitalism. I make the case that both the liberal and the anti-capitalist theorists miss the likelihood of technology rendering redundant large-scale production in the future, and forcing thus capitalism to adjust to the Commons in the long run. The prospect, therefore, of an open cooperativism introduced by the reformist theory holds significant potential with respect to the future development of the Commons. For the Commons however to expand and flourish, a global institutional reform, followed by a set of inter-local and international principles, is sine qua non. Hence, transparency of information, distribution of value, solidarity and bottom-up self-management are the core variables of individual and collective autonomy inasmuch as they permit a community or group to formulate its values in relation to the needs and skills of its members.

This paper analyses the state of local industrial production in Uganda and how the emergence of COVID-19 has impacted it. This analysis bears in mind the regional context of Uganda as Partner State of the East African Community and a member of the African Union. Both of these institutions have mechanisms that impact on trade and relatedly on local industrial production, most notably the newly established African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). Overall, the paper makes a case for furthering local industrial production drawing on the lessons from the economic and developmental impact that the pandemic has wrought on the country.

AbstractWe systematically study the mass spectrum and strong decays of the S-wave $${\bar{c}}{\bar{s}} q q$$ c ¯ s ¯ q q states in the compact tetraquark scenario with the quark model. The key ingredients of the model are the Coulomb, the linear confinement, and the hyperfine interactions. The hyperfine potential leads to the mixing between different color configurations, and to the large mass splitting between the two ground states with $$I(J^P)=0(0^+)$$ I ( J P ) = 0 ( 0 + ) and $$I(J^P)=1(0^+)$$ I ( J P ) = 1 ( 0 + ) . We calculate their strong decay amplitudes into the $${\bar{D}}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$$ D ¯ ( ∗ ) K ( ∗ ) channels with the wave functions from the mass spectrum calculation and the quark-interchange method. We examine the interpretation of the recently observed $$X_0(2900)$$ X 0 ( 2900 ) as a tetraquark state. The mass and decay width of the $$I(J^P)=1(0^+)$$ I ( J P ) = 1 ( 0 + ) state are $$M=2941$$ M = 2941 MeV and $$\Gamma _X=26.6$$ Γ X = 26.6 MeV, respectively, which indicates that it might be a good candidate for $$X_0(2900)$$ X 0 ( 2900 ) . Meanwhile, we also obtain an isospin partner state $$I(J^P)=0(0^+)$$ I ( J P ) = 0 ( 0 + ) with $$M=2649$$ M = 2649 MeV and $$\Gamma _{X\rightarrow {\bar{D}} K}=48.1$$ Γ X → D ¯ K = 48.1 MeV, respectively. Future experimental search for X(2649) will be very helpful.

The aim of the study: to develop recommendations for the comprehensive improvement of the practice of concluding and implementing a PPP agreement. Research methods: analysis, synthesis, logical modeling.In the article the authors substantiate the analysis of the characteristic features of PPP agreements and  identified four stages of this  process: The first step. The process of initiation (start) of the project; Second step. The processes of execution (implementation) of the project; Third step. Monitoring processes (monitoring) of the project; Fourth step. The process of closing (completion) of the project. There are at least two participants in this process: a "public" partner (state) and a "private partner " - a business with different legal status and resources, as well as having different goals. Each of the four selected stages presents "inputs" (initial action) and "outputs" (final action) separately for each of the participants. In the paper the authors reveal the content of each stage of the process and give step-by-step recommendations to improve efficiency. From the point of view of the authors, consistent implementation of the recommendations presented in the practice of PPP will allow you to get away from the formalism and, in general, to increase the percentage of effective PPP projects.

AbstractIn 1978, Norway established a sickness insurance with no waiting days and full wage compensation. For the past thirty years, Norwegian authorities have repeatedly attempted to change this incentive structure in order to reduce comparatively high sickness-absence levels, but with little success. Thus, Norway seems to exemplify the retrenchment literature's diagnosis of fiscally unsustainable welfare states whose attempts to reduce costs are blocked by strong interest groups and institutional inertia. However, while changes in the incentive structure have been blocked, policy development has taken other paths.New structures for monitoring sickness absence and for activating employers and employees have been established. The course of a sickness-absence spell has been regulated, with ‘stop points’ and procedures which must be adhered to. Rather than increasing employers’ and employees’ economic responsibility, these actors have been made responsible for the establishment of individual plans, they are to enter into dialogue at compulsory meetings and aim towards the use of active measures. While this often has been perceived as a sign of inability to reform, it may alternatively be viewed as the silent establishment of new relations of governance.By analysing this specific case, the paper addresses the wider issue of welfare state change. Through the analysis of incremental, qualitative reforms such as these – often overlooked in comparative social policy research – it throws light upon how social policies may work through restructuring citizen–employer–social partner–state relationships.

AbstractThe first Dutch book on P2P “Save the World” by Michel Bauwens had a good reception in Flanders. Even for the critics, the emerging way of ‘getting things done’ through global cooperation on “what is light” and re-localisation of “what is heavy” is making a lot of sense and is indeed the way to go. In this article, we examine two criticisms of the book: the feasibility of an unconditional basic income within the present system and the possibility to move gradually to a P2P society without “overthrowing” capitalism.  Apart from the “low road” to peer-to-peer (after an economic collapse) and “the high road to peer-to-peer” (through neo-Keynesianism) a third way could open up, based on a reformed partner state facilitating peer production. Our conclusion is that under the present circumstances, with exponentially growing bottom-up initiatives, open source alternatives and the Internet as a new means of production, value creation and distribution, past failed experiences of ‘socialism in one country’ could today have more chances of succeeding on condition that a progressive government arms itself with a commons transitional plan. Such a transitional government would undoubtedly face many difficulties, but it would at least open the horizon for a better future. And it would certainly enjoy a wave of solidarity throughout the world. PODE O CAPITALISMO REFORMAR A SI PRÓPRIO E SE ENCAMINHAR PARA UMA SOCIEDADE P2P? ResumoO primeiro livro holandês sobre P2P “Save the World” de Michel Bauwens teve boa recepção em Flandres. Mesmo para os críticos, a nova forma de “conseguir fazer as coisas” através da cooperação sobre “o que é leve” e a relocalização de “o que é pesado” faz muito sentido e é, sem dúvida, o caminho a seguir. Neste artigo, analisamos duas críticas feitas ao livro: a viabilidade de renda básica incondicional dentro do sistema presente e a possibilidade de mudar gradualmente para uma sociedade P2P sem “derrubar” o Capitalismo.Além de uma “low road to peer-to-peer” (depois de um colapso econômico) e “the high road to peer-to-peer” (através do neo-keynesianismo) uma terceira via poderia ser aberta, baseada num estado parceiro reformado que facilitasse a produção do tipo “peer”. Concluímos assim que nas circunstâncias presentes, com iniciativas “bottom-up” crescendo exponencialmente, alternativas de código aberto e da Internet como novo meio de produção, criação e distribuição de valores, experiências falidas de 'socialismo em um só país' no passado poderiam agora ter mais chances de sucesso sob a condição de que um governo progressista se arme com um plano de transição dos comuns. Tal governo de transição poderia sem dúvida enfrentar muitas dificuldades, mas pelo menos abriria os horizontes para um futuro melhor. E certamente gozaria de uma onda de solidariedade no mundo inteiro.
