[Abstract] Despite impressive advances in our understanding of the factors conducive to successful management on the commons, there remains considerable confusion about the effect of heterogeneity among the resource users. Perspectives on this issue fall into two camps. The first, pioneered by Olson (1965), and subsequently formalized in the theory of public goods, holds that inequality favors collective action. The second view, closely associated with the field-study literature, insists that heterogeneities hamper collective action. This chapter synthesizes recent theoretical and empirical research on this issue to clarify the arguments made by both camps. A first task is to provide a taxonomy of the relevant types of heterogeneity. We argue
