This book develops an original theory of group and organizational behavior that cuts across disciplinary lines and illustrates the theory with empirical and historical studies of particular organizations. Applying economic analysis to the subjects of the political scientist, sociologist, and economist, Mr. Olson examines the extent to which the individuals that share a common interest find it in their individual interest to bear the costs of the organizational effort.
The theory shows that most organizations produce what the economist calls "public goods"--goods or services that are available to every member, whether or not he has borne any of the costs of providing them. Economists have long understood that defense, law and order were public goods that could not be marketed to individuals, and that taxation was necessary. They have not, however, taken account of the fact that private as well as governmental organizations produce public goods.
Mancur Lloyd Olson, Jr. (pronounced /ˈmænsər/[1] or /ˈmæŋkər/; January 22, 1932 – February 19, 1998) was a leading American economist and social scientist who, at the time of his death, worked at the University of Maryland, College Park. Among other areas, he made contributions to institutional economics on the role of private property, taxation, public goods, collective action and contract rights in economic development. Olson focused on the logical basis of interest group membership and participation. The reigning political theories of his day granted groups an almost primordial status. Some appealed to a natural human instinct for herding, others ascribed the formation of groups that are rooted in kinship to the process of modernization. Olson offered a radically different account of the logical basis of organized collective action.
不管后人怎么吐槽,奥尔森的理论能抓住社会变迁背后的一些关键机制,能与一些现有理论对话,且也足够简约,这就够了~
评分奥尔森是个天才,博论做成这个样子,语言清晰简明逻辑清楚直白,实在厉害。读罢前两章的感觉,就是好像在理论内部的挑错完全进行不了了——他总是用长注堵住人的嘴:我都想到了哇!可是仔细想想,他的理论在这学期课程讨论的抗争政治意义上的集体行动中确实不太适用,大概有以下几个原因:第一,抗争政治群体的边界是更流动的,很难确定某一特定时间节点的总体规模,这样大小群体的区分不是被否定就是被弱化了;第二,抗争政治的结果是高度不确定的,和公共品的提供不同,没有人能真正计算出potential benefit来——即使可以,也高度不精确;最后,group size的乘数效应在抗争政治中更加明显:抗争多了一个人本身就带来大量的显性和隐性收益,小团体的抗争除非组织强大、目标明确、对象好找,否则失败的几率更高。

评分《集体行动的逻辑》的读后感 老师在这本书中提出的引导性问题是关于“在国家政治中,利益集团是一种好的力量还是坏的力量”。有关集体的行动代表的是一种关于利益集团理论的运作过程。集体顾名思义,就是有共同利益的个人为了某种利己的目的而汇集在一起所形成的团体。而集体行...
