ECONOMICS FOR COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

 

Renegotiating the Commons

Graham Marshall, University of New England, Australia

Published by Earthscan / James & James

* A ground-breaking work that explains the economics of managing the commons and provides a framework broadly applicable in all situations and jurisdictions

* Includes lessons from USA, Canada, Southern and West Africa, Bolivia, Philippines and detailed coverage of the Murray Darling Basin in Australia

* Mandatory reading for economists, policy-makers, researchers and students working on environmental and natural resource management

This ground-breaking book diagnoses the weaknesses of mainstream economics in analysing collaborative and other decentralized approaches to environmental management, and presents an alternative approach capable of identifying the conditions under which pursuit of the collaborative vision has a reasonable prospect of promoting voluntary cooperation in management of the commons.
