Econ 145

Econ 145

Order Description

4-page paper (typed, double spaced, 12 Arial font, 1” margins) discussing the

possible use of common property to address the commons problem.

Please develop your discussion within the context of either (1) Acheson and the

lobster fiefs or (2) Cinner and customary marine tenure in the Indo-Pacific.

Note: you don’t have to read Acheson if you read Cinner and vice versa, but in

either case you should show evidence of having read Hardin and either Wade or

Seabright.
To clarify, you are to give BRIEF explanation of the tragedy of the commons as

stated in Hardin, then using Wade OR Seabright explain how the use of common

property rights can resolve the commons problem. Then, within the context of

either Acheson or Cinner’s papers, show how the theoretical problems and

solutions have played out in practice. Although we do ask you to cite your

sources, you are free to use any bibliographical style of your choosing. You are

not being asked to use any sources other than the assigned readings, but if you

use anything else you MUST cite it clearly.

You are being graded primarily on the basis of the following: did you write a 4

page paper about the assigned reading, and demonstrate an understanding of the

problem and the solutions.
