Pollution and Property - Comparing Ownership Institutions for Environmental Protection - Daniel H. Cole - Paperback Bog - Cambridge University Press -

Description

Solutions to environmental problems depend on impositing private-, common-, or public-property rights in natural resources. Who should own the resources: private individuals, private groups of 'stakeholders', or the entire society (the public)? This 2002 book argues that no single property regime works best in all circumstances. Environmental protection requires multiple regimes.
