When everyone benefits, who takes responsibility? The Paradox of Cooperation Understanding Why Groups Fail to Act Together unpacks one of the most enduring dilemmas in social and political theory-the challenge of motivating individuals to contribute toward shared goals when self-interest rewards inaction. Through a blend of economic reasoning, political analysis, and behavioral insight, this research-oriented guide explores how incentives, group size, and rational choice shape cooperation in societies, organizations, and governments. It provides a clear explanation of why collective action problems persist-from taxation and environmental policy to civic engagement-and how institutional design can help overcome them. Ideal for students and scholars in political science, economics, and sociology, this book serves as an accessible yet rigorous examination of how human logic collides with collective need. It's a study in both the limits and potential of organized cooperation. Understanding why people don't act together is the first step to helping them do so.
