Alexandros Kioupkiolis re-conceptualises the common in tandem with the political. By engaging with key thinkers of community and the commons, including Nancy, Ostrom, Hardt and Negri, he harnesses the political thrust of a radical democratic politics of solidarity, equality and collective self-organisation. He calls into play poststructuralist conceptions of agonism and hegemony, put forward by thinkers such as Mouffe and Laclau, to remedy the failure of existing theories of the commons to address power relations and division.
Alex Kioupkiolis is Assistant Professor of Contemporary Political Theory in the School of Political Sciences at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His research focuses on contemporary social movements, radical democracy, the commons, and alternative conceptions of politics. He is the author of Freedom After the Critique of Foundations: Marx, Liberalism and Agonistic Autonomy (Palgrave Macmillan, 2012) and the principal investigator of the 2017-20 international research project Heteropolitics (ERC COG 2016), which enquires into civic self-organisation, the commons and municipalist processes in the European South.
