THE SHARED CITY

IDEAS ABOUT THE NEED FOR PUBLIC POLICY DEVELOPMENT TO ACHIEVE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF CITIES IN THE DEVELOPING (OR MOST VULNERABLE) COUNTRIES ON THE BASIS OF THE CONCEPT OF COMMON GOODS (URBAN) AND THE IDEA OF COLLABORATIVE ECONOMY THAT UNDERLINES THE NATURE OF ITS MANAGEMENT)

Abstract

Common assets  are those that belong to the community and, therefore, belong to everyone and nobody at the same time. Its constitutional protection - referred, in principle, only to material goods; Thus, for example, in article 132 of the Spanish Constitution (the so-called public goods by nature, especially continental waters and the coast and territorial sea) -, it intends to grant them the greatest legal guarantee so that they are not at the mercy of governments shift. It happens that this guarantee is weighed down in many cases (for example in Spain) by the conception that the “public domain” is not so much a fiduciary property of the State, as a dry property and, therefore, it is possible the disaffection of specific assets , which - thus converted into patrimonial assets - can be disposed of (privatized). The public (dominated by the State) and the private (dominated by large corporations), in apparent contradiction, are actually the same, since both have their interest in the market.
