Hardin's Theory Of "The Tragedy Of The Commons" And Policy Prescriptions - Correct And Reasonable?
Number of pages:
7
ABSTRACT:
7 pages in length. The extent to which man has threatened his own existence by way of overpopulation, overfarming, overuse of natural resources and ignoring the unspoken law of the land – social responsibility, is both grand and far-reaching, and eloquently drawn together in a nice, neat package written by Garrett Hardin. That Hardin's 1968 literary eye-opener entitled Tragedy of the Commons was sent as a forewarning of the grave consequences facing the twenty-first-century human race is undeniable; Hardin's insightful glance into the future by way of the present declining social and economic conditions are both correct and reasonable like no other prediction before or since. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
