Abstract

The core of this book lies in these chapters on management and its ideology. The rules governing use of resources are fairly straightforward. Ownership and usufruct are specified at various levels, from complete open-access to individual ownership. Rules for common-pool use include taking no more than is needed, taking enough to leave a viable population for others (and not only human others), doing as little damage to the environment as possible, and using all of everything hunted or collected. Many specific cases and methods are detailed here.
