Elinor Ostrom, Nobel Laureate in Economics, just died.

What a tragic loss! 

When a leading light of the pioneering human spirit gets extinguished, somehow we all die. 

When we carry on her work for our Beloved Commons, we all live and she lives with us.

Kevin Hansen a friend and collaborator with the SoC shared just now with us this piece, in his words:

"She knew that her end was near. 

This is what she chose to write:

Valuable indeed."

Thank you Kevin.
