  • Explaining success on the commons: Community forest governance in the Indian Himalaya
    Agrawal, Arun; Chhatre, A. (Elsevier B.V., 2006)
    This paper addresses gaps in theory and knowledge by conducting a statistical analysis of 95 cases of decentralized, community-based, forest governance in Himachal Pradesh, and showing how a range of causal influences shape forest conditions in diverse ecological and institutional settings in the Indian Himalaya.
  • Forest commons and local enforcement
    Chhatre, A.; Agrawal, Arun (Washington, D.C.: National Academy of Sciences, 2008)
    Using a long range International Forestry Research Institute (IFRI) dataset, this journal article demonstrates that local enforcement plays a strong role in the success of common property schemes. This relationship holds true even when controlling for a number of factors, such as commercial quality, user group dynamics, and collective action taken in forest management.
