While the original work on the tragedy of the commons concept suggested that all commons were doomed to failure, they remain important in the modern world. Work by later economists has found many examples of successful commons, and Elinor Ostrom won the Nobel Prize for analysing situations where they operate successfully.[17][14] For example, Ostrom found that grazing commons in the Swiss Alps have been run successfully for many hundreds of years by the farmers there.[18]

This eponymous law is stated succinctly by Lee Anne Fennell as:

I was under the impression that, in the US, public bathrooms operate under some kind of gender-based “purge rules”, and that’s why it’s so essential to know who’s fair game
