This review is from: The Commons in the New Millennium: Challenges and Adaptation (Politics, Science, and the Environment) (Paperback)
Some of the chapters in here are functional--useful for those studying or practicing economics. But there are others that are fascinating even for readers who don't want strictly academic material. Chapter six in particular on the experience of tradable quota fishing in Iceland is one of the best economics papers I've read. Eythorsson manages to keep on top of the shifting economic incentives along with the shifting political power of different elements of Icelandic society to present a full picture of how the quota system has and has not worked. The topic sounds dry enough to cure paint, but I assure you that it's worth reading for anyone interested in a living example of political economy and economic-environmental policy.
