Nobel winner Elinor Ostrom not only does good work, but she is affiliated with an Anthropology PhD program at Arizona State University. She took up a part-time position here 3 years ago and founded the Center for the Study of Institutional Diversity, which has anthropologists and others working on common pool resources, collective action, and other good things.
