This collection of essays offers a critical assessment of Elinor Ostrom’s legacy, the establishment of the Bloomington School, and the value of interdisciplinary methods within economics and the social sciences.
Elinor Ostrom was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in economics and her achievement has generated renewed interest in the Bloomington School research program in institutional economics and political economy.


These new essays showcase Ostrom’s extensive and lasting influence throughout economics and the wider social sciences. They contextualize the Bloomington School within schools of economic thought and show how Ostrom’s distinct methodology is used in policy-making and governance. Case studies are used to illustrate the value of civic involvement within public policy, a method pioneered by Ostrom and the Bloomington School.


The book provides a valuable resource for those keen to understand Ostrom’s approach, especially when applied to policy-making and wider application in the social sciences. Readers new to the Bloomington School will be introduced to its central areas of research while those already familiar will appreciate its subtle connections to other disciplines and research agendas.

Jayme Lemke is a Senior Research Fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University and a Senior Fellow in the F. A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. Vlad Tarko is Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Economy and Moral Science at the University of Arizona. He is the author of Elinor Ostrom: An Intellectual Biography (2017) and co-author of Capitalist Alternatives: Models, Taxonomies, Scenarios (2015).
