Ricardo Anton is co-director of Amasté, an office of ideas behind the project ColaBoraBora which focuses on the commons, open source, collaborative dynamics and social entrepreneurship emerged from the opportunity framework offered by Eutokia , a Centre of Social Innovation in Bilbao. In this interview, the author not only describes the project itself but also the general reflections generated along the road of CBB: answering questions such as what is meant by the commons, and questions about the possibility of generating a social economy, about cultural, institutional and personal obstacles when undertaking the project or about the need to link theory and practice to build a common knowledge.
