They can be described as \"social dilemmas\" according to Holzinger, 2003. Based on this definition, it is possible to identify a discrepancy in between what is regarded rational on an individual level and the collective common \"good\". Therefore, in a collective action problem micro-level behaviour translates into undesirable macro-level effects, which manifest in decreased collective welfare. Based on this first definition, this study focuses on two central aspects: 1. providing a possible explanation of how collective action problems derive from rational individual behaviour 2. providing possible solutions to collective problems. To put abstract theory into a reality oriented context, this study furthermore focuses in the discussion of the nature and problematics of collective action problems on Hardin's tragedy of the commons (ToC).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grin Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45568665059479,"sku":"9783668451933","price":1885.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783668451933.webp?v=1767136220","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/solutions-to-collective-action-problems-9783668451933","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
