Dear GEPers,
A quick follow up on my earlier message ('What are institutions,
anyway?'): The videogame Law of the Jungle has just been completed and is
now available for use (free) for those whose teaching emphasizing the
institutional dimensions of environmental problems.
This game was created by a dozen student programmers and artists under my
direction over a three year period. This is a role-player game in which
the player returns to his/her village in Central America and must figure
out what is causing the destruction of local forests. It focuses
substantively on common-pool resource regimes, state-society relations, and
multilevel governance. Play time is approximately one hour.
See the "play the game" link at rulechangers.org
We hope you enjoy it!
Paul
