Abstract

At our first international conference at Duke University I commented that it would doubtless seem strange to the uniniated to learn that there really was an international society for the study of common property. Was this, it might be thought, a communist front organization? In an era when the magic of the market— and the extreme individualization there implied-was still being celebrated in both science and politics, was it not sillyindeed, was it not heresy—to devote valuable time, mostly at taxpayer expense, to the study of common property? Perhaps it really was true that our universities and research organizations were dominated by communist sympathizers.
