Technological Change and the Tragedy of the Commons: The Lofoten Fishery over 130 Years
利用130年详细数据，分析技术变革对罗弗敦渔业劳动生产率和全要素生产率的影响，发现技术进步部分被鱼类资源衰退抵消，开放获取可能是原因。
We analyze the effect of technological change on labor and total factor productivity in the Lofoten fishery, using detailed data for 130 years. Our findings support the important role of natural resources in productivity and improvements in welfare in natural resource–based industries. The total factor productivity has risen faster than labor productivity in the fishery, indicating that the considerable technological progress in this industry has to some extent been neutralized by the decline in the fish stock. Open access to the fish resource most probably led to this situation. <i></i>
