Unbundling the Global Commons
Can Elinor Ostrom's design principles for governing local commons scale to global commons dilemmas? This paper argues that they can, but not as a template to be applied wholesale. The principles are diagnostic tools for decomposing global commons into governable sub‐problems. The entry point is the structure of goods and property rights, which is institutionally contingent rather than fixed. The paper develops an unbundling framework that matches…
Does economic liberalization increase government accountability
Governing the global fisheries commons
Despite significant advances in understanding the biophysical and institutional causes of overfishing, we have yet to make progress in addressing the depletion of our global fisheries stock. Investigations of potential solutions tend to be too broad (mischaracterizing global fisheries as a singular commons problem to be addressed at the supranational level) or too narrow (focusing on improving management of small fisheries at the micro level). Th…
Complex externalities
On the nature and structure of externalities
This paper contributes to the literature on externalities and their classification by reconciling insights from transaction costs theory with James Buchanan’s and Elinor Ostrom’s analyses of property rights and institutional diversity. We critique the dominant Pigouvian analysis, which assumes only two forms of institutions—namely, governments and private markets—that can internalize externalities. We develop a new taxonomy of externalities that …
Max-U? Considering humanomics in public policy
Does social capital help in post-disaster recovery? Evidence from the Gorkha earthquake of Nepal
The perception of climate change and the demand for weather-index microinsurance
Despite donor assistance and government subsidies, the uptake of microinsurance products to insure against extreme climate events remains low in many climate vulnerable economies. Emerging evidence indicates that various non-price factors such as lack of knowledge, trust in institutions, beliefs, and perceptions about climate change partly explain the low uptake. This study uses the CVM approach to investigate the effect of one such factor – farm…
Social entrepreneurship, co‐production, and post‐disaster recovery
Post‐disaster recovery requires co‐production; that is, the inputs of citizens are essential for successful community recovery to occur. Citizens contribute to post‐disaster recovery by volunteering, taking on consultative and decision‐making roles within their communities, and directly participating in post‐disaster reconstruction efforts. Without meaning ful contributions from citizens—the intended beneficiaries—unilateral efforts by public off…
