New social economy - Relations of production

Robin added a fifth blob to his map - 'the new social economy'. This section characterises that newness in terms of **altered RoPs**.

On that basis we argue that the core of the new economy - or rather, the **making** of the new economy - should be seen as constituted by activist practices of commoning, grounded in the mutual sector.

It argues also, for an analytical approach through new relations and forces of production, as distinct from (in partnership with) an approach through 'solidarity stories', pitched in terms of 'values'.
