About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book is a fine collection of essays, located at the intersection between agricultural, environmental, and institutional economics. … The book has several strong sides. First of all, it is truly interdisciplinary. Beyond economics, the contributed essays come from anthropology, comparative political science, economic sociology, and cognitive sciences. … Overall, the book would fit very well the library of any research centre or department working on environmental, agricultural, and/or institutional economics.” (Gam Aldashev and Elena Vallino, European Review of Agricultural Economics, Vol. 37 (3), 2010)Editors and Affiliations
