Book Description:
|
Ellickson demonstrates that people largely govern themselves by means of informal rules--social norms--that develop without a state or other central coordinator. Integrating the latest scholarship in law, economics, sociology, game theory, and anthropology, Ellickson investigates the uncharted world where order is successfully achieved without law.
