The commons, in connection with the social and solidarity economy (SSE), has been extended to all areas of life in society, opening up a new perspective, that of the commons society. As this becomes the horizon of the overcoming of capitalism, what “revolutionary evolutions,” or (r)evolutions, could give it shape? The author provides an answer by making the development of territories in common, characterized by their integral and translocal infrastructure, the lever of a replacement of capitalism by the commons. He then examines the role that the social and solidarity economy could play in this transition, while noting that, in the light of the dominant neoliberal bloc, it is divided. The author outlines the strategies to be followed for the establishment of a commons society, based on the “SSE in the commons” that already exists.
