Clinician or Meta-Theorist? About Eclecticism and Consistency in Contemporary CPR Studies

Abstract

"Professor Poteete’s commentary describes some of the mechanisms and sources of conceptual inconsistency in the study of common property and underlines the importance of consistency in order to both communicate effectively and make our research more relevant. While the analysis provides a valuable perspective on disciplinary division, politics and conceptual evolution as sources of conceptual inconsistency in the CPR research, some additional points might prove helpful."
