Andrea McArdle’s chapter in The Cambridge Handbook of Commons Research Innovations, entitled “Reimagining Urban Public Housing as a Commons,” focuses on NYCHA, arguing for the primacy of NYCHA residents (rather than that of profit-driven developers) so that decision-making regarding public housing as a commons is grounded in residents’ urban knowledge, experience, and need, and informed by the social function of property theory.
