    The coevolution of renewable resources and institutions - implications for policy design

    No full text
    This PhD thesis studies how natural renewable resources and institutions governing those resources mutually influence each other. Theoretical models are developed in which members of a small community have joint access to a common pool resource. We analyze under which circumstances social norms of cooperation evolve that effectively regulate resource exploitation, but also when those social norms break down, identifying obstacles for community governance. Furthermore, in the light of biological and social complexity this thesis analyzes how governmental policy should be designed if self-governance is not sufficient to protect the resource stock. The insights obtained are applied to the case of Arcto-Norwegian cod. An optimal management plan is developed that can be adapted to several policy objectives concerning the utilization of the fleet. In addition, management advice is given for the case that harvesting may trigger an evolutionary response of the fish stock. </p

    Nederland heeft nog steeds geen echte belasting op CO2-uitstoot ingevoerd. De reden is de vrees dat bedrijven minder concurrerend zullen worden ten opzichte van het buitenland, marktaandeel zullen verliezen, of zelfs werkgelegenheid naar het buitenland zullen verplaatsen. Is deze vrees gegrond, en zo ja, wat kan eraan gedaan worden
