Social 
dilemma 
institutions 
• Centralised 
governance; 
privatisation; 
community 
governance; 
co-­‐management 
– Differentiate 
through 
ownership 
of 
property 
rights 
(property 
rights 
are 
considered 
a 
bundle 
of 
rights) 
• Use 
Schlager 
and 
Ostrom’s 
(1992) 
five 
characteristics 
of 
property 
rights-­‐in-­‐use: 
1) Entry 
– 
the 
right 
to 
enter 
a 
resource; 
2) Withdrawl 
– 
the 
right 
to 
harvest 
and 
take 
some 
resource 
units 
out 
of 
the 
resource 
system; 
3) Management 
– 
the 
right 
to 
change 
the 
physical 
structures 
in 
a 
resource 
system 
or 
develop 
a 
variety 
of 
physical 
infrastructures 
for 
any 
particular 
resource; 
4) Exclusion 
– 
the 
right 
to 
determine 
who 
else 
could 
use 
the 
resource 
and 
what 
their 
specific 
rights 
would 
be; 
and 
5) Alienation 
– 
the 
right 
to 
sell 
one 
or 
more 
of 
the 
first 
four 
rights 
permanently 
or 
for 
a 
given 
time 
period

approach? 
“I 
am 
quite 
seriously 
proposing 
that 
we 
give 
legal 
rights 
to 
forests, 
oceans, 
rivers, 
and 
other 
so-­‐called 
“natural 
objects” 
in 
the 
environment 
– 
indeed 
to 
the 
natural 
environment 
as 
a 
whole.”

1. Ko te Awa te mātāpuna o te ora - the River is the source of spiritual and physical sustenance 
2. E rere kau mai te Awa nui mai te Kahui Maunga ki Tangaroa – the great River flows from the mountains to the sea 
3. Ko au te Awa ko te Awa ko au – I am the River and the River is me 
4. Ngā manga iti, ngā manga nui e honohono kau ana, ka tupu hei Awa Tupua – the small and the large streams that flow 
into one another and form one River
