Abstract

"Common property institutions are often analyzed with Ostrom’s design principles, yet there are few applications of the analytical framework to institutions owned and controlled by organized farm producers (i.e. farm producer co-operatives). Applicable to any human group with a common interest, the potential of the design principles to study farm producer co-operatives as common property institutions is appealing as current theories and frameworks do not completely or satisfactorily explain their survival or longevity. Prior literature is consulted to determine if and how each of the design principles is applicable to farm producer co-operatives. To help inform a future research agenda, we highlight the analytical limitations and the empirical challenges of the design principles to study farm producer co-operatives as common property institutions."
