Abstract

Relationships among members in traditionalAssociation communities are usually defined vaguely. Hence, it isDemocracy difficult to define formal rules to maintain cooperationCooperation and thus various informal punishmentsPunishment based on long-run relationships have been used to prevent selfishSelfish behavior that harms the community. In traditional communitiesCommunitytraditional, in order to impose social punishmentsPunishmentsocial on deviators of the norm of the community, people are monitored constantly and occasional conflicts with the deviators are solved by the whole community. In general, the relationships in communities are tight-knit and closed. For those people who like to have “freedom,” such a relationship can be quite oppressive.
