Abstract

The Commons in an Age of Uncertainty: Decolonizing Nature, Economy, and Society is a thorough demonstration of the problem of western-centered analyses in the political economic and economics disciplines. Even if used with the best intentions, the concept of commons in these western frameworks is far from reflecting the reality of other contexts and histories. Franklin Obeng-Odoom offers a fascinating and important perspective of the socio-ecological dimensions of land and thus an important reflection on the commons in the Global South.
