CPR approach to space sustainability: commentaries on Weeden and Chow / Meek, Philip A   Journal Article
Meek, Philip A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract Space sustainability is emerging as a core element of national policy and international initiatives. At this time, however, a coherent strategy and supporting policies have not been developed. To initiate a conversation to develop such a strategy, the authors have applied the principles developed by Elinor Ostrom for terrestrial common-pool resource (CPR) governance to near-Earth orbit in space. A concern arises as to whether Ostrom's eight principles are a good "fit" for application to space CPR because of the unique physical characteristics of space and the legal underpinnings of our presence there. This commentary will address selected issues raised by Weeden and Chow, and suggest alternative ways to approach near-Earth orbit sustainability.

Intercultural examination of cooperation in the commons / Carpenter, Jeffrey; Cardenas, Juan Camilo   Journal Article
Carpenter, Jeffrey Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract We design a real-time, intercultural common pool resource experiment using participants from cultures that derive different benefits from a global public good (extraction vs. conservation of biodiversity resources) to analyze the effect of group affiliation on cooperative behavior. We also collect survey attitudes toward conservation to augment our experimental results. We find that when participants interact interculturally, extraction choices change significantly and that these changes can be attributed to an amplification of the relationship between attitudes and choices cued by the intercultural treatment.
