The tragedy of the commons is a situation in a shared resource system where individuals users, acting independently according to their own self interest, behave contrary to the common good of all users by depleting or spoilt the shared resource through their collective action.

Overfishing is an example of the tragedy of the commons because multiple people are fishing for their own gain disregarding the negative effect depleting fish from the ocean can have. In this case the ocean is the shared resource system being spoiled through collective action.

Hope this helps :)

Why are central Africa’s natural resources underdeveloped
Anastaziya [24]

The second assumption is that there is something exceptional about Africa, that while other continents and peoples have got or are getting richer, Africans, for reasons we can think but no longer speak in polite company, choose to remain in poverty. Our capacity to see Africa as divergent lets us off the hook so we don’t have to understand our own complicity in the challenges various African countries face today. It also means we rarely rage as we should against the actions of the corporations and governments that profit from instability, corruption or even inexperience (African negotiators at the climate talks have historically been disadvantaged by their lack of experience and the expectation among western negotiators that they should be grateful with whatever they get).

If there is, then, no innate propensity for corruption, violence or poverty in Africa, then the narratives that fuel the stereotypes need questioning. One possible explanation comes from the Nigerian author Chinua Achebe, who said: “The west seems to suffer deep anxieties about the precariousness of its civilisation and to have a need for constant reassurance by comparison with Africa.” Perhaps it’s not Africa that needs saving, but us.
