One of our newsletter subscribers recommended Radically Legal: Berlin Constitutes the Future (2024) by Joanna Kusiak. In this creative non-fiction book, scholar-activist Joanna Kusiak tells the story of a Berlin grassroots movement that used a forgotten clause in the German constitution to reclaim 240,000 homes from big corporations. She imagines a future where housing is treated as a shared community resource, managed through new democratic models. Blending analysis with personal experiences, Kusiak shows how these bold legal strategies could strengthen democracy and revive the rule of law. Enjoy the read! This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
