| Abstract | Cities are dependent on a wide array of resources and assets for which property rights are hard or even impossible to establish. These resources, then, are not (sufficiently) supplied by the market and, hence, require forms of collective action. In this contribution, the case of Dutch architectural design is used as a window on the functioning of these so-called urban commons. It turns out, that the urban commons is a complex field comprising various private and public actors who are, at least partly, driven by intrinsic motives. |
