“…In land management practices, the self-interested behavior of participants externalizes costs to others and harms the collective and society, as well as contributing to the difficulty and inefficiency of promoting collective action for land policy reform. Land policy reform usually starts due to problems in defining or recognizing land property rights, or an uneven distribution of benefits, which leads to deviant policy implementation [4][5][6][7]. The explanation and logic of why and how this occurs varies greatly according to different epistemic perspectives.…”

Although land reform can be motivated by different policy objectives, it always involves the participation of many actors. Insights from New Institutional Economics suggest that individual interests that are not aligned with collective interests tend to undermine the goals of reform. This study provides a viable framework and measures for social capital, trust, and cooperation performance and their interrelationships to compensate for the existing separate analysis of these three factors and their rare application in achieving goals of collective action. We also build a strong and deepening theoretical foundation for the indicator design, providing a rich representation of social capital, trust, and cooperation performance. After being presented with variables, indicators are used to further elaborate on the variables to enhance the richness and science of the indicator design. The validation results of indicators from 12 experts and 223 respondents are to yield an average reliable coefficient as a positive sign of reliability and validity of the evaluation process with Kendall’s Co-efficient of Concordance (W) through R programming. This study emphasizes the importance of collective action for sustainable land use and effective land policy reform, a topic that remains underrepresented in most land reform analyses.
