NASSCOM: Self-Regulation for Sustaining the Commons in the Indian IT Industry
內容大綱
In a collective prisoners' dilemma or commons problem, self-interested behavior by firms results in poor outcomes for all. Can self-regulation through an industry association solve the commons problem? Specifically, what explains NASSCOM's (National Association of Software and Service Companies) success in saving a scandal-ridden member company, Satyam, from going out of business? Satyam's demise would have shattered client trust in all Indian IT firms; saving it was an unprecedented feat for an industry association. The case provides concrete examples for instructors to highlight the varieties of commons problems faced by industry. It also provides background information on how NASSCOM established its identity and credibility with the government, formulated its values, and crafted its governance model. This background helps students relate to Elinor Ostrom's core design principles that characterize robust institutions for solving commons problems.
