摘要:作者利用动态实验室现场公共资源实验来研究埃塞俄比亚两种形式的民主对森林使用者合作的作用。在这个实验设置中,参与者可以直接选择一个规则(直接民主),也可以选举一个决定引入规则的领导者(代议制民主)。将这两种处理方式与强加规则和强加领导进行比较。研究发现,与外生领导、外生规则强加和基线情景相比,由社区成员选举产生的内生性领导和由参与者直接参与产生的内生性规则对促进社区成员之间的合作更有效。代议制民主在领导人选举上与直接民主在规则选择上没有显著差异。进一步分析了领导的特征和行为。选举结果强调了民主程序的重要性。
Abstract The authors use dynamic lab-in-the-field common pool resource experiments to investigate the role of two forms of democracy on the cooperation of forest users in Ethiopia. In this experimental setup, participants can either directly select a rule (direct democracy) or elect a leader who decides on the introduction of rules (representative democracy). These two treatments are compared with the imposition of rules and imposition of leaders. It is found that both endogenous leaders elected by the community members and endogenous rules selected by the direct involvement of the participants are more effective in promoting cooperation among the community members compared to exogenous leadership, exogenous rule imposition and the baseline scenario without any of these modifications. However, no significant difference is found between representative democracy in the election of leadership and direct democracy in the selection of rules. Leadership characteristics and behavior are further analyzed. The results underline the importance of democratic procedures.
