Answer is "a lack of clearly defined and enforced property rights".

The tragedy of the commons is a term utilized as a part of sociology to portray a circumstance in a mutual asset framework where singular clients acting freely as per their own particular self-intrigue act in opposition to the benefit of all people by exhausting or ruining that asset through their collective activity. If the boundaries are clearly defined this can b avoided.
