This study revisits the problem of the tragedy of the commons. Extracting agents participate in an evolutionary game in a complex social network and are subject to social pressure if they do not comply with the social norms. Social pressure depends on the dynamics of the resource, the network...

This study revisits the problem of the tragedy of the commons. Extracting agents participate in an evolutionary game in a complex social network and are subject to social pressure if they do not comply with the social norms. Social pressure depends on the dynamics of the resource, the network...

This paper analyzes the influence that social networks and the state of a public good or common property resource have on compliance with social norms in relation to a social dilemma. We find that equilibria where compliers and defectors coexist (partial cooperation) can be stable and are...

El Manejo Forestal Sostenible (MFS) es un instrumento de gestión forestal basado en un proceso de planificación racional sobre la oferta forestal y las normas y prescripciones de protección y sostenibilidad de los bosques naturales. En Colombia se ha identificado como una estrategia para...

This article develops a theoretical framework to examine the relationship between land tenure agreements and households’ investment in land improvement and conservation measures. It then analyzes this relationship with a multivariate probit model based on a survey data from a sample of 560...

This paper presents a theoretical model to find the optimal selective-logging regime of a size-distributed forest. The law of motion of the economic model is governed by a partial differential equation that describes the evolution of the forest stock over time. To find the solution of the...
