In addition to winning the 2009 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences
for her path-breaking research on "economic governance, especially
the commons," Elinor (Lin) Ostrom also made important contributions
to other fields of political economy and public policy. This
four-volume compendium of papers written by Lin (often with
coauthors, most notably her husband, Vincent), along with papers by
others expanding on her work, brings together the strands of her
entire empirical, analytical, theoretical, and methodological
research program. Together with Vincent's important theoretical
contributions, they defined a distinctive "Bloomington School" of
political-economic thought. Volume 3 collects explores the
historical development of the Institutional Analysis and
Development (IAD) framework, illustrates its application to a wide
range of specific policy problems, and highlights recent extensions
that ensure it will remain a vibrant focus of research for years to
come. The IAD framework emerged from a long series of
interdisciplinary collaborative research projects, but the guiding
figure in its development was Elinor Ostrom. Anyone familiar with
the full range of her research will recognize common
presuppositions and themes for which she used the IAD framework as
an organizing device. This book collects examples of
policy-relevant applications of IAD to a wide range of policy
sectors. In a fundamental sense, the IAD framework helps us
understand how Ostrom's mind worked when she approached a
particular problem of policy, and it highlights those factors that
she asserted needed to be considered in any complete analysis.
Unfortunately, she did not leave us a complete or definitive
guidebook on how to apply this framework. This volume collects
important components of such a guidebook from a wide range of
sources, including previously unpublished papers, and as such it
should help anyone seeking to use this framework to analyze a
variety of policy areas.
