FOREWORD
Institutions are the rules of the game in a society or, more formally, are the humanly devised constraints that shape human interaction. In consequence they structure incentives in human exchange, whether political, social, or economic. Institutional change shapes the way societies evolve through time and hence is the key to understanding historical change. Douglas North, Nobel Prize Laureate1993 in Institutions, Institutional Change and Economic Performance Cambridge University Press, 1990
When analyzing environmental problems, economists have traditionally searched for ways of extending the rules of social costbenefit analysis so as to include the environmental side effects associated with investment projects. This they have done by estimating the "economic" value of side effects. Such side effects are often called "externalities" in the economics literature. Economists have also studied the efficacy of various policy instrumentssuch as the taxation of resource use or the use of tradeable permits for environmental pollutionfor directing economic activity in decentralized economic environments. Recently economists have inquired into the environmental side effects of macroeconomic policies.1 However, a more fundamental question, concerning the nature of the institutions of society that shape the use of environmental resources, has only recently begun to be studied.
