Note that no historical surveys are available to make a more useful, chronological comparison solely of La Boqueria. Sami proposes a four-step approach to explore this correlation: (1) content analysis to operationalize the independent variable (act) (2) qualitative research in form of an interview to security staff (3) quantitative research as an impact analysis: rating questionnaire targeted to residents attending the market (4) comparison of (3) with another sample, as a control group: in this case Mercato di Rialto, as it can be argued to share many features except for the independent variable. The focus of the proposed study are boundary rules. The ‘ban on large groups’ constitutes the independent variable. The dependent variable is ‘local’s experience attending the marketplace’. More specifically, Sami asksĭoes the ban on large groups influence locals’ experience attending the marketplace? 27) as well as to address the citizens’ tourism-related problems (Barcelona City Council, 2018). He sketches a diagnostic analysis departing from the passing of the aforementioned regulation in 2015, which bans large groups from the Mercat de la Boqueria. Sami justifies his use of Ostrom’s Institutional Analysis Framework as a guiding framework by highlighting the critical role of current measures to regulate the number of visitors (Pizzolatto, 2013, p. This unveils a problem of appropriation: tourists are not able to provide the good ‘traditional notion of the market’, thus acting as free-riders. Given its publicness and difficulty of entrance limitation, excludability is also present. Due to the maximum capacity of the market space and the inverse relation between good experience and attendance, subtractability can be argued.

Furthermore, it is a social space for local residents that inspires a sense of belonging. He argues that - in its traditional, lived, notion- this marketplace is a central point for quotidian grocery shopping. In his talk at the Urban Policy Lab Konstanz, Sami Hout Ledo defines the Mercat de la Boqueria as a common-pool resource. In 2015 the local government decided to limit the access of large, organized groups at certain times (Barcelona City Council, 2015).

It has, subsequently suffered from changes due to the massive influx of visitors, affecting locals, holiday makers as well as the ambience of the marketplace as a whole: permanent crowds and rising offer of prepared food replacing traditional groceries, all which is causing tensions between visitors and residents. Barcelona’s Mercat de la Boqueria is one of the city’s main attractions and the picturesque epitome of the local mediterranean atmosphere.
