"Political Monitoring" as an Analytical Concept: A Lasting Legacy?

Author

  • Thomas D. Lancaster

Abstract

This article highlights the concept of monitoring as an example of how researchers can learn from the scholarship of Elinor and Vincent Ostrom. It emphasizes the concept’s critical role in the pursuit of good governance and in related explanations of self-organized collective action to overcome social dilemma issues. Framed by their theoretical concerns, the discussion raises questions about how future research might analytically apply political monitoring, suggests cases to be explored, and offers guidelines that should be considered.
