Abstract

The pricing of non market services/goods is a mean to recognise their role in the decision processes of public interest. The choice of how to consider and handle to use the corresponding values is influenced by goods’ definitions assigned by neoclassical economics – common, public, natural resource, collective. The paper analyse limits and perspectives of the definitions based on the traditional individual preference model from the point of view of their utility in influencing the sustainability policies of a public body. The conclusion is that traditional definition does not really matter compared the utility of the per se estimate of the non market component a good governance.
