The visualization of property and resources is a defining foundation of the construction and application of a property rights framework. When humans encounter resources they cannot see — or hidden resources —, they have difficulties imagining an appropriate property regime. These hidden resources include subsurface resources (oil and gas reservoirs, groundwater, pore space), biological resources (migration paths, plant and animal dormancy cycles), informal and unrecognized land titles, and extraplanetary resources (asteroid mining and water). As a result, we often apply an existing two-dimensional property framework from visible resources to three and four-dimensional hidden resources. This article argues that lacking the ability to see resources —resource blindness — directly impacts our ability to use, manage, and conserve them. Conversely, resource sight — the ability to see resources — can tremendously aid the development of an effective and efficient property rights framework. This article also contends that hidden resources are best governed when owners and users understand the resource’s scientific properties. And those properties are likewise better gathered when the natural resource is visible to the human eye. Finally, if resource sight cannot be acquired, this article proposes avoiding resource conflicts by creating small groups of local and knowledgeable community property owners to advise in the resource’s management and encourage cooperative development.

自然资源产权理论在隐蔽资源中的应用

产权和资源的可视化是产权框架构建和应用的决定性基础。当人类遇到他们看不到的资源——或隐藏的资源——时,他们很难想象一个适当的财产制度。这些隐藏资源包括地下资源(石油和天然气储层、地下水、孔隙空间)、生物资源(迁移路径、植物和动物休眠周期)、非正式和未被承认的土地所有权,以及行星外资源(小行星采矿和水)。因此,我们经常将现有的二维属性框架从可见资源应用到三维和四维隐藏资源。本文认为,缺乏看到资源的能力——资源盲目——直接影响我们使用、管理和保护资源的能力。反过来,资源视野——看到资源的能力——可以极大地帮助开发一个有效和高效的产权框架。本文还认为,当所有者和用户了解资源的科学属性时,隐藏资源的管理最好。当自然资源对人眼可见时,同样可以更好地收集这些属性。最后,如果无法获得资源视野,本文建议通过创建小团体的当地和知识渊博的社区财产所有者来为资源管理提供建议并鼓励合作开发,从而避免资源冲突。本文还认为,当所有者和用户了解资源的科学属性时,隐藏资源的管理最好。当自然资源对人眼可见时,同样可以更好地收集这些属性。最后,如果无法获得资源视野,本文建议通过创建小团体的当地和知识渊博的社区财产所有者来为资源管理提供建议并鼓励合作开发,从而避免资源冲突。本文还认为,当所有者和用户了解资源的科学属性时,隐藏资源的管理最好。当自然资源对人眼可见时,同样可以更好地收集这些属性。最后,如果无法获得资源视野,本文建议通过创建小团体的当地和知识渊博的社区财产所有者来为资源管理提供建议并鼓励合作开发,从而避免资源冲突。
