dc.description.abstract "Netting (1976) and later Ostrom (1990) describe robust institutions in the collective management of common property pastures in Switzerland, which prevent a 'tragedy of the commons'. But what happens when conditions change? Two peasant institutions (cooperatives under public law) in two villages in the mountain district of Graubünden show how cooperation and adaptation becomes more difficult as changing factors increase. One peasant institution still manages to adapt, however the other institution faces collapse." en_US
