Tragedy of the Commons │ The Problem with Open Access

The semantics of the model I'm working from use common goods/common property/ common pool resources (resources used by multiple people) and common property regimes (the institutions or social arrangements between people, the property rights regarding common pool resources).

We were taught that "the commons" is sort of an old term. It has issues because it blankets both common pool resources with no communication, no rules, no accountability, no punishment for those who break the rules, etc. (open access) and common pool resources with some cooperation or institution in place (common property regimes).

When you get away from those aspects that allow people to trust one another and work together, the system looks like an open access system. The tragedy of the commons model describes what happens in that open access system. But not what happens when a common property regime is in place. But the term "commons" doesn't distinguish between the two.

I love the calm and honest atmosphere you bring to your videos . It reminds me how I used to read illustrated encyclopedia books and watch kids documentaries as a child, gives me an endearing feeling. Just wanted to show my appreciation .

It's a shame that you're not getting the views and funding you need. Thank you for providing us with the videos you already have.

I love how your explanation of it basically includes the whole point of 'government' emerging naturally as a result of people communicating. It may be the form of a group, council, business, corporation, but ultimately the disorganized becomes organized naturally once people are communication and more importantly, working together.

I'm currently looking into different takes on the Tragedy of the commons, like yours right now, because I want to see if there is a way to operate a cooperative in regards to owning a large section of land. Have multiple people interested take part, and have each do their own thing, while also doing at least one thing that helps each other. All together, we should be able to make our own lives better, and experience better growth in personal wealth in regards to having a good home, a good life, and preferably some good income to go with it. All while being partially shielded from the constant craziness of the rest of the world.

I think it can be done, but I have to confront problems like the issue with open access like you put it. Ultimately there will have to be some form of rules we all agree upon. Hence my comment to you starting how it does.

I am to used to watch several science and philosophical channels. And the way you explain stuff is by far the best...

This videos are amazing! They're funny and entertaining. I'm studying mathematics, and the first time I saw the channel I decided that I should study statitistics and economy as my main branches, so thanks I owe you a lot.

Your topics are relatable, your style is universal and easy to understand as is your voice. The production quality is above average for this type of youtube video. I do not see why you are not allready at like at least 300k subscribers. Good luck ad keep producing your videos.

You are doing great stuff, just as good if not better than larger channels like ASAP Science, Minute Earth, and etc. if you posted more often, I know you would really take off. Keep up the great work!

Thank for the distinction about lack of teamwork being mandatory. Nearly misunderstood terribly much.

Hey dude, hope you grow big! Your vids are really good!
