What is mine is yours!

Well when I first begun in reading this book, I must say that I was not convinced at all by the title of the book presuming what was written in it. Raised in a society with a distinguished cultural form of property (coming after 50 years of isolation when all people were equal), has made me skeptic in believing that sharing has more benefits than owning all by your self. Even after I read it, and I saw and understand it clearly, the benefits of sharing, I found it difficult to implement in a society like ours. I don’t want to prejudice the book or the author, instead I must say that I really enjoyed reading it, and also admit that now I’m fewer skeptics than before, and probably I will make little bets to see how it is going.

Turning to what I read, and how it was written by the author Rachel Botsman and co-author Roo Rogers, the structure of the book was well defined and with chronological logic. In the book are three systems of Collaborative Consumption - product services systems, collaborative lifestyles and redistribution markets. Also the author belived and gave facts of collaborative consumtion and how it can be used bu the society. Today that are many exemple based on collaborative consumtion theory that prove that “What is mine is yours” can be a good reality.

I found it easy to read and understand, but hard to believe that these ideas of sharing can be a reality in Albanian near future, but who knows what tomorrow will bring, maybe what is mine can really be your even in a rigid society like AlbaniaJ
