- Ivan Illich talked about the 'vernacular domain' from the 70's onward and in a series of historical reconstructions made a case for that has been misunderstood in this discourse -  i think he is one source of Wolfgang Sachs 'cosmopolitan localism' that i used as a key notion in my writing - for an account of this consult trant schroyer ' Beyond Western Economics' ( Routledge 2009- chapter 2 & 4)) for a chapter on Illich and Polanyi that argues the sustainability of small communities in a post-secular argumentation.

-and of course the background debate about Gandhi's in India about swaraj, or self rule. that that has not had the recognition it needs - here both critics of small communities and defenders will find partial support - i think this debate has a relevance for the commons movement in many ways - again i argue both sides of this case in 'Beyond Western Economics' chapter 5

- finally the marxism really relevant to the commons movement are the cultural marxists - especially Jurgen Habermas whose Universal Pragmatics and discourse ethics-  is the ultimate critique of positivism and the politics of productivism - he has been wrongly labeled as having become a liberal after publication of 'Between Facts and Norms' - which is very wrong - of course his procedural constitutionalism may have some conflicts with the commons movements but as a theory of communication - i think-  it is the most sophisticated around
- work of cultural marxists - especially Jurgen Habermas whose Universal Pragmatics and discourse ethics

The text of the charter is given in Brigit Hanna, Ward Morehouse, and Satyu Sarangi, The Bhopal Reader, 2004" - quote from ward morehouse
