The governance of natural resources used by many individuals in common is an issue of increasing concern to policy analysts. Both state control and privatization of resources have been advocated, but neither the state nor the market have been uniformly successful in solving common pool resource problems. After critiquing the foundations of policy analysis as applied to natural resources, Elinor Ostrom here provides a unique body of empirical data to explore conditions under which common pool resource problems have been satisfactorily or unsatisfactorily solved. Dr Ostrom uses institutional analysis to explore different ways - both successful and unsuccessful - of governing the commons. In contrast to the proposition of the 'tragedy of the commons' argument, common pool problems sometimes are solved by voluntary organizations rather than by a coercive state. Among the cases considered are communal tenure in meadows and forests, irrigation communities and other water rights, and fisheries.

Recensione

'In this ambitious, provocative, and very useful book, Ostrom combines a lucid theoretical framework with a series of diverse and richly detailed case studies … she tightly reviews and critiques extant models of cooperation and collective action and argues powerfully that communities of actors are sometimes able to maintain a common resource for long periods of time without outside intervention.' Contemporary Sociology

'Ostrom's book is an important contribution to the problems of common property resources, that is, the lack of well-defined property rights over a certain resource. Elinor Ostrom convincingly shows that there are many different viable mixtures between public and private, in particular self-organization and self-governance by the users of the common property resource. The book makes fascinating reading, particularly as it is well written.' Bruno S. Frey, Kyklos

'Students of common property resource regimes will find much of great interest in the volume.' Barry C. Field, Land Economics

'A classic by one of the best-known thinkers on communities and commons.' Yes! A Journal of Positive Futures

'… timely, well-written, and a useful addition to our understanding of the challenges of natural resource management … useful for undergraduate and graduate students as well as field practitioners interested in the development of scientifically based research. It provides a firm grounding in the theoretical underpinnings that should guide empirical investigations … Ostrom offers a unique source of information on the realities of resource management institutions coupled with the challenge for continued examination of institutions on order to develop better ways to address the CPR challenge.' Gordon L. Brady, Southern Economic Journal

'This is the most influential book in the last decade on thinking about the commons. For those involved with small communities … located in one nation, whose lives depend on a common pool of renewable resources … Governing the Commons has been the intellectual field guide.' Whole Earth

Descrizione del libro

Tackles one of the most enduring and contentious issues of positive political economy: common pool resource management.

3,0 su 5 stelle The third way
Recensito in Italia il 21 agosto 2013
Acquisto verificato
After the failure of Communism and Capitalism, the author shows that a third way is possible in the management of our finite resources: the commons.

It is not a new concept (think of the Commons in England before the Enclosures of the XVIII century) but it has become very much alive in recent years with the debate on sustainability.

The writing is slightly academic and monotonous but well researched nevertheless.

Recensito in Canada il 9 novembre 2022

Extremely insightful and real life case studies covered by Ostrom in this book. I was forced to read this in an upper-year Public Policy Economics course at University, and it is what I would consider to be my favourite read out of all four of my years studying.

Excellent read by and excellent author.

Received a photocopied / pirated version (quite clear from the low quality paper and tilted print). Did not return it because the information was there, but WAY too overpriced for a shoddy reproduction.

Elinor Ostrom won the Nobel for her work on common-pool resources, so this book represents Economics orthodoxy on the topic.

It does not disappoint.

Presumably to get us interested, the author starts backwards, taking us through three examples of simple theories that predict common-pool resources will always perish: the "prisoner's dilemma," the "tragedy of the commons" and the "logic of collective action."

From there she goes on to explain how a common-pool resource differs from a public good like national defence or public safety: First, if my cow is grazing on a meadow, it's eating grass that won't be there for your cow to eat. Second, by dint of competing with one another to extract fish from a lake, we could be doing so at the expense of our future ability to fish from the lake. National defence, on the other hand (a public good, rather than a common-pool resource) is there for all of us to fully take advantage of and does not perish through the tragedy of the commons. A common-pool resource is thus defined (p.30) as a "stock" of variables that can produce a maximum quantity of "flow" variable without harming the "stock" or the system, with the added complications that 1. it could be costly to monitor / police / limit the "appropriation" of the "flow" 2. it could be costly to ensure the continued "provision" of this common-pool resource itself (for example, a community might need to keep a dam in good shape)

Next, the author politely points out that the three game-theoretical constructs which predict the demise of all common-poor resources are far too abstract and proceeds to disprove them by counterexample, listing a number of thriving examples of common-pool resources that 1. have stood the test of time and 2. are isolated and simple enough for us to examine without having any second thoughts as to whether our analysis is complete: High mountain meadows and forests in Switzerland and Japan, irrigation institutions in Spain and the Philippines are described in great detail, and their common characteristics are summarized as follows:

1. Clearly defined boundaries
2. Congruence between local conditions and the rules governing "provision" and "appropriation" of the common-pool resource
3. Collective choice arrangements whereby those who use the common-pool resource have voice in establishing or modifying the rules
4. Monitoring that is, at a minimum, accountable to the appropriators
5. Graduated sanctions for rule-breakers
6. Conflict-resolution mechanisms
7. The right of appropriators to organise must not be challenged by outside authorities
8. For larger common-pool resources there is a need for multiple layers of nested enterprises to take care of "provision," "appropriation," "monitoring," "enforcement," "resolution," "government" etc.

It's a formidable list, but it's not exhaustive. In the spirit of Douglass North and Mancur Olson, the author next introduces a further factor in the equation, and that's the contribution that government institutions have to make to common-pool resources by means of providing technological expertise and a helpful legal framework that will jointly act to support, help shape and enforce the decisions of the agents who engage in the provision and appropriation of the common-pool resource. The example here comes from a very thorough examination of how institutional change was made possible in the case of a number of rather diverse groundwater basins in California in the 1950's and 60's.

A long list of failures comes under the microscope next: two Turkish fisheries, yet another Californian groundwater basin, a (totally fascinating) Sri Lankan fishery (p.151), followed by a couple borderline cases in Sri Lanka and Canada. They are all checked against the list, with a summary (p.180) of successes and failures that makes for some very persuasive reading.

Rather than declare some type of "breakthrough," the book closes with an extremely humble assessment of the quandary facing participants in common-pool resources and an attempt to describe a general framework for assessing the potential for success through their eyes: the size, variability, quality and longevity of the benefits that will flow to the potential appropriators must be weighed against the costs inherent in helping out with "provision," the transformation costs, the monitoring and enforcement costs, the information costs and the potential for positive institutional change. The author submits that in her opinion the following factors are most conducive to a positive decision to adopt a new rule / participate in a proposed solution:

1. Looming harm if the rule is not adopted/changed to save the resource
2. Appropriators will be affected in similar ways if a rule is adopted/changed
3. Low discount rates
4. Low information, transformation, monitoring and enforcement costs
5. Pre-existing social capital (e.g.in the form of norms or reciprocity and trust)
6. A relatively small and stable group appropriating from the common-pool resource

I'll be totally honest, I read this entire book with an eye toward analysing the European common currency as a common-pool resource, but in the end I was captivated by the theory itself. Even if I never apply this knowledge to anything, I thoroughly enjoyed reading "Governing the Commons." I was entertained and challenged in equal measure.
