* Includes lessons from Africa, Central America, North America and Asia, and detailed coverage of collaborative management in irrigated environments of Australia's Murray Darling Basin
* Essential reading for economists, policy-makers, researchers, leaders,
practitioners and students working in environmental and natural resource management
Mainstream economics has a tight grip on public discourse, yet remains
poorly equipped to comprehend the collaborative vision for managing
environmental and resource commons. This ground-breaking book diagnoses the weaknesses of mainstream economics in analysing collaborative and other decentralized approaches to environmental management, and presents a unique operational approach to how collaborative environmental governance might be brought to fruition in a variety of contexts, whether in industrialized or developing countries. The result is a powerful, useful and badly needed approach to economics for collaborative environmental management of the
commons.

About the Author:
Graham Marshall is Program Leader and Postdoctoral Fellow, Institute for Rural Futures, University of New England, Australia
Review:
"Marshall has re-grafted economics to the philosophical roots of collaborative environmental management, given stakeholders a pragmatic economics for 'bottom-up' conflict resolution and eliminated the need for 'top-down' economic experts. Beautifully reasoned and wonderfully practical!"--Richard B. Norgaard, Energy and Resources Program, University of California, Berkeley, US "If the potential of collaborative management is ever realized, it will owe a debt to this book. It provides a foundational economic theory of learning coming from complex adaptive systems thinking tested with field experience"-- Allan Schmid, University Distinguished Professor, Agricultural Economics Department, Michigan State University, US
