| Humans live in a world of scarce, exploitable resources: clean air, potable water, food, medical supplies, money, time, and many other goods that humans depend on are limited. In addition, many of these resources do not respect national boarders or, alternatively, may be adversely affected by the behavior of actors in other countries (e.g., pollution). This poses important public policy problems that challenge traditional notions of national policy autonomy. We examine the fields of economic and environmental policymaking to gain insights into the conditions under which public policy can successfully govern collective resources. Our substantive focus will be on democracy, elections, globalization, climate change, and economic crises. |
