Abstract: *The Commoner’s Catalog for Changemaking: Tools for the Transitions Ahead* explores commoning as a transformative framework for addressing contemporary challenges. The book covers diverse topics, from rethinking economics and land stewardship to racial justice and digital infrastructure, highlighting the potential of commoning to drive systemic change. It focuses on relocalization, cooperative solutions, and community-driven resilience, particularly in the U.S., while emphasizing care, collective ownership, and environmental stewardship. Offering practical tools for changemakers, the work advocates for cooperative, sustainable systems that foster justice, equity, and inclusivity, ultimately aiming for a more harmonious and resilient future.
