| その他の書誌記述: | The article analyzes collective action in road and bridge building in Costa Rica during the nineteenth century. Using a rational choice framework and the public goods theory, it addresses the social and economic processes that encouraged cooperation among peasants in developing the road network between the Valle Central and the Pacific port city of Puntarenas. It argues that the increasing commercialization of agriculture at the turn of the nineteenth century stimulated voluntary collective action among peasants, as well as institutional change to prevent free-riding. |
