Abstract:	"Until recently I was resistant to dropping the word property from the Associations name. My reluctance was two-fold. First, the Association has long struggled with a perception by many local community activists and field practitioners that it is overly academic and too often more interested in theory than the sustainability of common property systems designed and managed by local people. I believe it is important for the Association to maintain a creative balance and foster more productive synergy between theoretical and applied endeavors."
