Alexandros Kioupkiolis Boeken

The book examines the emergence of alternative democratic politics since the 1990s, highlighting significant movements such as the Zapatistas' insurrection and the 2011 wave of democratic activism. It delves into the municipalist movement in Spain, analyzing its theoretical foundations and practical implications. By critiquing the concepts of common hegemony and populism, it offers insights into how these movements challenge traditional political structures and envision new forms of governance.

Alexandros Kioupkiolis re-conceptualises the common in tandem with the political. By engaging with key thinkers of community and the commons, including Nancy, Ostrom, Hardt and Negri, together with poststructuralist conceptions of agonism and hegemony from Mouffe and Laclau, he remedies problematic issues of power relations and division.
