# Peer-Reviewed Academic Paper on Prospera Governance

Date: 2024-04-05 | Summary: A peer-reviewed paper on the history, formation, and governance structure of Honduras's first ZEDE. | Canonical: https://www.treygoff.com/writing/peer-reviewed-paper-prospera-governance

A few years ago, I wrote a peer reviewed academic paper about the history, formation, and governance structure of Prospera. Sadly, the journal in which I published it seems to have shuttered, meaning you can no longer find that paper online.

To remedy this, I decided to republish it here! The paper is titled "Creating the First Honduran ZEDE: Lesson in Political Economy, Institutional Design, and Governance Systems," and I co-authored the paper with Prospera founder Erick Brimen and Prospera legal genius Nick Dranias.

I hope you enjoy!
