From Community-Based Resource Management to Complex Systems: The Scale Issue and Marine Commons
Open accessAbstract
Most research in the area of common and common-pool resources in the past two or three decades sought the simplicity of community-based resource management cases to develop theory.This was done mainly because of the relative ease of observing processes of self-governance in simple cases, but it raises questions related to scale.To what extent can the findings of small-scale, community-based commons be scaled up to generalize about regional and global commons?Even though some of the principles from community-based studies are likely to be relevant across scale, new and different principles may also come into play at different levels.The study of cross-level institutions such as institutions of co-management, provides ways to approach scale-related questions and deal with linkages in complex adaptive systems.Looking beyond self-governance, community-based resource management needs to deal with multiple levels of governance and external drivers of change, as illustrated in this paper with examples of marine commons.

“Much of the early commons scholarship focused on small-scale, community-based resource systems, in part, because governance processes are easier to observe in less complex systems (Berkes, 2006; E. Ostrom, 1990).”

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.
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.
