Abstract

Threats to community-based property rights, including the commons, particularly for local people in the majority world (a term I prefer over "developing countries" because most human beings live there), are serious, severe, and getting worse day-by-day. The primary problem arises out of the fact that many, if not most, nation-states in the majority world ignore communitybased property rights and instead claim ownership of vast areas of natural resources, including areas inhabited by indigenous and other local peoples.
