How do institutions influence collective choice in the economic and environmental spheres? Vatn (environmental sciences, Norwegian U. of Life Sciences) compares a variety of theoretical positions on the question and advances his own approach of classical institutional economics. He examines the role of institutions in framing and defining choice, how rationality develops different institutional structures, and preferences and preference structures as social constructs, how and why people choose types of institutions. He then applies the results of those discussions to questions of resource regimes, environmental valuation, and policy instruments for influencing development in the direction of environmental goals.
