在这篇文章中，我们提议埃莉诺·奥斯特罗姆和朱迪思·巴特勒举行一次“非纪律”会议，目的是通过将公地理论作为一种关系政治来讨论，从而拓宽该理论的范围。我们使用巴特勒的权力理论来质疑现有的公地愿景，从奥斯特罗姆的“有限理性”转向巴特勒的“有限自我”和“相互脆弱”的概念。有界--与自主存在相反--意味着社会权力关系和规范的(模糊)影响，而这些往往是无法控制的。因此，作为一个有限自我的集体，意味着在权力关系中相互脆弱，这种权力关系是有利的，尽管是有害的。共同的政治不仅仅是对资源的技术管理(在空间)，而是努力实现共同的宜居关系(在时间上)。我们认为，产生我们的多重曝光也是世界各地民主国家更公正、更平等地重新“回归”的可能性条件。
In this paper we propose an ‘undisciplinary’ meeting between Elinor Ostrom and Judith Butler, with the intent to broaden the theory of the commons by discussing it as a relational politics. We use Butler’s theory of power to problematize existing visions of commons, shifting from Ostrom’s ‘bounded rationality’ to Butler’s concepts of ‘bounded selves’ and mutual vulnerability. To be bounded – as opposed to autonomous being – implies being an (ambiguous) effect of socio-power relations and norms that are often beyond control. Thus, to be a collective of bounded selves implies being mutually vulnerable in power relations which are enabling, albeit injurious. A politics of commoning is not a mere technical management of resources (in space) but a struggle to perform common livable relations (in time). We argue that the multiple exposures which produce us are also the conditions of possibility for more just and equalitarian ‘re-commoning’ of democracies around the world.
