The Uncommon Knowledge of Elinor Ostrom: Essential Lessons for Collective Action by Erik Nordman

challenging hopeful informative inspiring medium-paced

4.0

An excellent, very approachable introduction to Elinor Ostrom and her research into community management of common-pool resources using example stories.. think water rights, forestry, space exploration, fishing, climate, open source software…

I’m doing some work and thinking around The Commons, The Common Good, Common Pool Resources - and this is a great intro to Ostrom’s Nobel Prize winning work.

I do wish it were a bit deeper, but it’s a wonderful introduction.
