Abstract

Private property is at once a right, a principle of ownership and the subjective form taken by the relations between the individual and the world. Public property, at the core of public law, developed alongside private property. This article argues for the need to escape the dilemma of the 'private' and the 'public' by taking into account the new rationality of the 'common,' advocated by diverse social movements and experiments: these insist that the right to use prevails over ownership and thus form part of a logic of inappropriability.
