In Honor of Elinor “Lin” Ostrom: The Vincent and Elinor Ostrom Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis, Department of Political Science, Indiana University
本文是《实验经济学》特刊的引言，纪念埃莉诺·奥斯特罗姆，强调她将实验方法引入集体行动研究以及创办社会困境双年会议的贡献。
Numerous tributes to Elinor (Lin) Ostrom have appeared across a wide spectrum of academic and non-academic venues (e.g., see citations to tributes listed in the references). Certainly, Lin's academic accomplishments are much too long and too broad for us to begin to adequately capture here. Needless to say, in addition to her path-breaking research, Lin's career as an advocate for research examining issues of collective action included many honors, including becoming the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. In addition, Lin's career included numerous elected offices, including serving as the president of the American Political Science Association, the Public Choice Society, and the International Association for the Study of the Commons. In this special issue of Experimental Economics, we wish to highlight two of Lin's particular accomplishments, her choice to embrace experimental methods as central to the study of collective action and her leadership in creating the biennial conference on social dilemmas that became the impetus for this special issue.
