Win Together or Lose Alone: Circular Economy and Hybrid Governance for Natural Resource Commons
Open accessAbstract
Natural resource commons are rivalrous non-excludable goods subject to the well-known market failure of overexploitation (also known as the tragedy of the commons) due to coordination failure, short-termism and free riding. We investigate how innovation in circular economy and (multistakeholder) network contracts can contribute to addressing the problem. More specifically, circular economy innovation can improve the efficiency of investment in regeneration of the natural resources, while network contracts can create a legal framework preventing coordination failures and increasing the effectiveness of individual willingness to act cooperatively. The model addresses and discusses governance issues arising in network contracts and the need to implement them from a multistakeholder perspective considering heterogeneity in the target quality of natural resources across stakeholders.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
The paper argues that circular economy innovation plus hybrid governance—network contracts and multistakeholder monitoring—can address natural resource commons problems such as overexploitation, short-termism, and free riding. Its model shows that cooperation can preserve the common good and sustain income/employment, while excess competition can make unilateral regeneration economically unsustainable.
Key findings
- Circular economy innovation improves the efficiency of investment in regenerating natural resources, while network contracts create a legal framework that prevents coordination failures and increases the effectiveness of individual willingness to cooperate.
- In the model, starting from perfect quali-quantity (Q = 1), non-cooperation is the dominant strategy in scenario A; this degrades Q over time, raises production and restoration costs, reduces employment and income, and can trigger exit from the market.
- Under perfect competition, a player who cooperates while the other free-rides may have no sales (pq = 0), making cooperation economically unsustainable: “you win together or lose alone.”
- Higher circular economy regeneration efficiency (E) reduces regeneration costs, improves cooperative payoffs, and can allow regeneration even without cooperation if revenues are not too low; the paper also cites COMIECO/CONAI enabling Italy to reach an 87.3% paper and cardboard recycling rate by 2020, surpassing the EU’s 85% target for 2035.
Methods
- Theoretical model of profit-maximizing entrepreneurs who use labor and the “quali-quantity” (Q) of a natural resource common as production inputs; Q is modeled as a Verhulst logistic function, with waste-pollution reducing Q unless regeneration expenses are incurred.
- Game-theoretic payoff matrix with two identical entrepreneurs choosing cooperative regeneration (cR = R*/2) or free riding (cR = 0), analyzed under three cost-parametric scenarios (A, B, C) and their competitive versions.
- Long-term dynamics are illustrated in Figs. 1–2 under restrictive assumptions, including E ≪ 1, R0 = 0, one-shot noncooperative games, indivisible production/labor, and constant prices, waste-pollution, and efficiency; no empirical dataset or estimation is used.
Limitations
- The paper states that its model is a simplified version of reality with several restrictive assumptions; time dynamics, free riding management, monopolistic drift, circular economy management strategies, transaction costs, competition reduction, international competition, and repeated games can be further developed.
- The paper states that transaction costs and competition reduction are discussed but not formalized, and that international competition and protective measures require further discussion.
- Evident from the text: the analysis is analytical/illustrative rather than empirically estimated, and the figures rely on stylized assumptions and are not calibrated to observed data.

The main conditions that make the tragedy of the commons happen are open access (non-excludability) to the rivalrous common good, lack of information, negative externalities, and the absence of well-defined and exclusive property rights.
“The main conditions that make this ' tragedy ' happen are open access (non-excludability) to the rivalrous common good, lack of information, negative externalities, and the absence of well-defined and exclusive property rights.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
In the process of production, entrepreneurs generate waste-pollution that reduces the quali-quantity unless they incur regeneration expenses.
“In the process of production, they generate waste-pollution that reduces the quali-quantity unless they incur regeneration expenses.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The entrepreneur is a profit maximizer (π), having labor (L) and the common good of sufficient quali-quantity (Q) as production factors, with the latter being freely accessible.
“We model the choice of the entrepreneur, assumed to be a profit maximizer ( π ), and having labor (L) and the common good of sufficient quali-quantity (Q) as production factors, with the latter being freely accessible.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The market is perfectly competitive where entrepreneurs are price-takers, meaning the price (p) is constant and the impact of the quantity supplied (q) by a single entrepreneur is negligible (dp/dq ≈ 0).
“Initially, we assume a market with perfect competition where entrepreneurs are price-takers, meaning the price (p) is constant and the impact of the quantity supplied (q) by a single entrepreneur is negligible (dp/dq ≈ 0).”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The full regeneration cost R* is zero if the quali-quantity is already maximum, increases as the quali-quantity decreases, and decreases as the circular economy regeneration efficiency E increases.
“Let us label the full regeneration cost R*. The full regeneration cost is zero if the quali-quantity is already maximum (i.e., there is no need for regeneration), increases as the quali-quantity decreases, and decreases as the circular economy regeneration efficiency E increases.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The factors impacting on Q, namely (R0 + ∑Ri(cRi, E), ∑qi ri), are taken as given when the i-th entrepreneur makes her choice about cRi.
“Additionally, we will assume that the factors impacting on Q, namely ( R 0 + ∑ Ri cRi , E ) ∑ qi r i ) , which will vary to formulate different scenarios, are taken as given when the i-th entrepreneur makes her choice about cRi .”
The authors state this as an assumption.
p, r, E, and R0 are positive and constant over time.
“Finally, for simplicity and without lack of generality, we assume, unless specifically indicated otherwise, that p, r, E, and R0 are positive and constant over time.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
In the short term, investing in R has null impact on the common good because regeneration investment has effects in the subsequent period.
“In the short term, the impact of investing in the quali-quantity of the common good (R) is null, as the regeneration investment has effects in the subsequent period.”

No natural regeneration mechanisms are at work (R0 = 0).
“No natural regeneration mechanisms are at work (R0 = 0) to emphasize the importance of cooperation in preventing the deteri oration of the natural common good.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The amount of output produced by a single producer (q) is chosen along with R and thus is the same for all strategy combinations.

Because these are common goods and players can enter and exit, it is impossible to establish trust between players or expectations about the other, making the games non cooperative and one-shot.
“Because these are common goods and players can enter and exit, it is impossible to establish trust between players or expectations about the other, making the games non cooperative and one-shot.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
In scenario A, if both invest in regeneration costs remain constant; if only one invests costs increase in period 2; if no one invests production costs increase even more but less than R*/2.
“Given cost function characteristics in (3) we can conveniently as sume, without lack of generality that: i) if both invest in regeneration ( R * 2 ), costs remain constant over time (C); ii) if only one invests in regeneration, costs (C1) increase in period 2 (C1 > C); iii) if no one invests, production costs (C2) increase even more (C1 < C2) but, in any case, by definition, less than R * 2”

In the competitive version, if an entrepreneur has higher costs than the other, and this applies only to the case of different choices, then they have no returns due to competition.
“If an entrepreneur has higher costs than the other, and this applies only to the case of different choices, then they have no returns due to competition.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
If there is a dominant strategy, systematically lower cost and higher profit, then competition results in zero profit, making the alternative necessarily negative in profit and thus not selectable due to the exit condition.
“If there is a dominant strategy, systematically lower cost and higher profit, then competition results in zero profit, making the alternative necessarily negative in profit and thus not selectable due to the exit condition.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
