I am happy to announce the publication of the book Radical Municipalism: The Politics of the Common and the Democratization of Public Services, co-edited with Bertie Russell and published by Bristol University Press on 26 February 2026. The volume brings together a strong theoretical framework and 14 original case studies from Europe and the Americas to explore the transformative potential of the politics of the common in the democratization of public services. By examining both the challenges and the possibilities of common-based strategies, the book offers new insights into how local initiatives can foster broader processes of social and political change. It contributes to ongoing debates on the democratic road to socialism as a possible alternative to capitalism and aims to serve as a resource for scholars, practitioners and activists interested in radical municipalism and democratic transformation.
