From Introduction:
"What happens when a common pool resource that has enjoyed considerable autonomy for centuries suddenly becomes intertwined with public administration at large? From their beginning up to some twenty years ago, Dutch waterboards operated successfully and almost independently from general purpose (municipal, provincial and national) government. But within less then two decades, the intergovernmental relations between waterboards and general purpose governments has intensified enormously. In this paper we analyze the organizational changes in Dutch waterboards within the framework presented by E. Ostrom (1990). Some of the recent changes in waterboards will be illustrated with examples from waterboards in the province of Zeeland, since they were the first to anticipate and act upon them. In order to understand the magnitude of these 'recent' changes, we first describe the changes in the geographical environment and the development of Dutch waterboards from their origins up to the early 1970's (sections 2 to 4). The changes in the period 1970-1990 are then discussed in more detail in section 5. After a short theoretical interlude (section 6), we discuss two cases regarding the province of Zeeland (sections 7 and 8). In the concluding section, we suggest a tentative response to the central question of this paper." |
