Abstract

Savage and Torgler investigate the explosion of commercialization that occurred in late 1980 and the reasons for its growth. They examine the relationship between commercial operators, their clients and the traditionalist climbers, which are being complicated by the very nature of each group’s identity, the existence of motivational differences, issues of legitimacy, and the perceived chasm in altruistic and pro-social behaviours. They examine how the introduction of the competing social institution can lead to a breakdown in reciprocity and helping behaviour, creating in- and out-groups that lead to conflict.
