Scarcely a society has existed on the face of the earth that has not had commoning at its heart. \"Neither the state nor the market,\" say the planetary commoners. These essays kindle the embers of memory to ignite our future commons.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom Thomas Paine to the Luddites, from Karl Marx--who concluded his great study of capitalism with the enclosure of commons--to the practical dreamer William Morris--who made communism into a verb and advocated communizing industry and agriculture--to the 20th-century communist historian E.P. Thompson, Linebaugh brings to life the vital commonist tradition. He traces the red thread from the great revolt of commoners in 1381 to the enclosures of Ireland, and the American commons, where European immigrants who had been expelled from their commons met the immense commons of the native peoples and the underground African-American urban commons. Illuminating these struggles in this indispensable collection, Linebaugh reignites the ancient cry, \"STOP, THIEF!\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Linebaugh\u003c\/b\u003e is a historian, a professor at the University of Toledo, the coauthor of \u003ci\u003eAlbion's Fatal Tree\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Many Headed Hydra\u003c\/i\u003e, and the author of \u003ci\u003eThe London Hanged\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Magna Carta Manifesto\u003c\/i\u003e.
