Notes

• Classic article describing dynamic by which self-interested actors damage common resources in pursuit of personal gain.
• Cites importance of top-down control or privatization as potential but flawed solutions.
• Ostrom's work in Common Pool Resource Management refutes and expands on many aspects of Hardin, but is less well known and read.
