Exploring the intricacies of federal governance, this collection features 36 unpublished manuscripts by Vincent Ostrom, co-founder of the Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis. It delves into the dynamics of collective, constitutional, and epistemic choices within democracies, highlighting polycentric institutional theories. Contextualized by a foreword from Nobel Laureate Elinor Ostrom and a preface by Barbara Allen, the essays contribute to the understanding of the Institutional Analysis and Development framework associated with the "Bloomington School."
