Health and law-making: collectively re-creating narratives
On March 10 2022, from 13:30 to 15:00 CET, an online workshop will be organized by the International Association for the Study of the Commons.
This event is part of a colloquia series "dedicated to the policy issues related to the commons and importance of bringing the commons discussion to policy makers' attention in Europe & CIS and for engaging our community in a wider policy dialogue."
Proposal
Content (draft)
- Worldviews about the Law
- a book of rules to comply to → Napoleon civil code (post-positivism, universalism)
- a process of collectively agreeing on the rules that bring out the best of society → indigenous customs (social constructivism, contextual)
- Origins in Education
- Knowledge owned by third-party experts → hierarchy, state vs market
- Knowledge emerging from the group → self-organization, commons
- Narratives about the Social Contract
- Innovation requires private resources → intellectual property, exclusion
- Access to resources is a fundamental right which requires participatory governance (Rodotà, Italy Supreme Court)
Approach
- Emergence of participants' knowledge on the topic enriched by inputs from experts.
