Mainstream economics has a tight grip on public discourse, yet remains poorly equipped to comprehend
the collaborative vision for managing environmental and resource commons. This ground-breaking book
diagnoses the weaknesses of mainstream economics in analysing collaborative and other decentralized
approaches to environmental management, and presents a unique operational approach to how
collaborative environmental governance might be brought to fruition in a variety of contexts, whether
in industrialized or developing countries. The result is a powerful, useful and badly needed approach to
economics for collaborative environmental management of the commons.
