Reforms directed toward decentralizing the management of natural resources are intended to increase stakeholder involvement and improve the effectiveness and sustainability of resource management arrangements though application of the principle of subsidiarity. The widespread advocacy of such reforms has given rise to numerous case-study examples around the world. This article presents a framework for such studies, based in institutional analysis, for researchers who wish to assess both the decentralization process and the outcomes of decentralization efforts. Rationale for the inclusion of variables and hypothesized relationships of variables to prospective outcomes are explained. 2012-03-30T07:31:44Z 2012-03-30T07:31:44Z 2010 Journal Article Society & Natural Resources 0894-1920 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/5194 EN http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/igo World Bank Journal Article
