Projektinformationen

This project aims to better understand the institutional change in water and pasture governance, underlying change mechanisms and their impacts on the resources and their sustainability in a long-run evolutionary perspective. The project comprises three work packages which move inductively from a description over spatial-statistical inference to theoretical modelling. The work packages accordingly emulate the major objectives of the study. In particular, the first work package aims to identify different patterns of institutions and institutional change in water and pasture by specifying important dimensions and describing the dimensions over a selected time frame. The second work package identifies the effects of institutions on natural resource endowment in a long term perspective. The last work package aims to explain why and how the institutional change in Central Asian natural resource governance occurred. The project builds on rich insights generated from the Ph.D. work and extends the focus to a new set of resources, research questions and a cross-border comparison of Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan.
