Communal irrigation management, Lari, Colca Valley, Peru | Case |
| This study focuses on water use in irrigation. The case is characterized by well-defined boundaries: Once water enters an irrigation cluster it comes under the control of the landowners. There is evidence of congruence between appropriation and provision rules and local conditions as water is distributed according to time sequence (p. 57), spatial sequence (p. 58), and crop irrigation sequence (p. 59, 105). The sequence can be adjusted within a irrigation cluster since microclimates,... | 09 Aug 2016 |

Large N Comparative Studies of Ostrom's Design Principles | Case |
| There have been a number of studies that focus on testing whether and in what contexts Ostrom's institutional design principles may lead to successful governance of common-pool resources. The study of Cox et al. (see sources) coded the presence or absence of each of 8 design principles and success in 62 cases and found that the likelihood of success and the presence of individual design principles is positively correlated. However, because institutions are systems, it is... | 13 Jul 2017 |
