Abstract

This paper presents a noncooperative dynamic game with overlapping generations of players using a common-property natural resource, and identifies conditions under which cooperation is supported as an equilibrium of the game. It explores how heterogeneity among the resource users and access to outside markets or microcredit affect local resource use in developing countries.
