The tragedy of the Commons
An economy that has individuals who must consume certain goods at the expense of other people faces the tragedy of the commons. In this economy, it is a must for the consumers to have access to the goods and services they prefer most. The incentive that pushes the consumers leads to exhaustion of resources, overconsumption, and people fail to invest, accordingly. In the tragedy of the economy, some consumers suffer, those who cannot get an excess unit of the commodities from the marketplace (Robèrt, Karl-Henrik, & Göran., pp. 10). When personal suit in the society is neglect, like the well-being of the people, the tragedy of the commons is realized. The tragedy of the joints can be used in environmental science to refer to issues dealing with a sustainable environment. In the structure of the strategy of the commons, some groups choose a leader. Also, the leader is believed to bring the essence of ruining things. These leaders are democratically elected to manage the resources accordingly. Leaders will ensure that shared resources are preserved through rewarding ad punishment. Autocracy sometimes fit in the tragedy of the common to cub corruption and misuse of power.
Globally, people know that infidelity is not accepted at any moment in life. Contrary to the fact, there is a small percentage of people who think cheating is suitable for various reasons like depression or divorce. People cheat mostly due to the negative influence mentioned above, adding on an issue like domestic violence. There can be specific reasons, situational reasons, and relationship reasons that make people cheat, knowing vividly that telling a lie is catastrophic (Robèrt, Karl-Henrik, & Göran., pp. 10). Some of the particular ideas are gender, personality, political issues, and religious purposes. In relationships, people cheat because they are not satisfied in one way or another. Cheating is acceptable, even by the religious doctrine, if one has to escape poor or bad scenarios. When predicaments are more tempting than others, then one ought to cheat. Fixing situations is a skill that many must have to survive in this world. Most people fear to cheat because of the catastrophic nature but will end up cheating to make things right. Some people call this cheating a pure lie. The lie is almost to the truth because one needs something done, amicably. For example, when a child does not want to eat, the parent would cheat them by saying that they would go for a trip immediately, the child finishes the food. At the end of eating, not the trip is gone because the parent wanted the child to take the food quickly.
There are various ways people can avoid their tragedy of commons predicament. The villagers in the overfishing example can use these two steps in escaping their tragedy of commons. The first method is solving by dividing the resource system into parcels. The fishing zones have to be classified according to the precedent population (Robèrt, Karl-Henrik, & Göran., pp. 10). People around the region need equity to avoid causing the tragedy of commons through cheating for the sake of satisfaction. When zones are categorized, there would be a systematic way of fishing that would regulate the practice. The second method of curbing the tragedy of commons is through assigning ownership of the resource system. When the property of the fishing places is known, there would be reduced poor fishing, thus cutting the overfishing habit.
