Public – general good is the good that serves the general use, is generally owned or under state, in the broadest sense of the public, everyone is entitled to serve it and is governed by state bodies in accordance with the purpose and the terms of use. In economic terms, public good is a good one that fulfills the criteria of so – non – rivalry and non – exclusivity. This means that the consumption of a particular good does not diminish its quantity available to other users, and that no one can be excluded from using that good. An example of public good is library, and it generally deals with the organization and operation of all types of libraries, and its main purpose is to enable the most appropriate use of all cultural and scientific resources of mankind. Economists and even the general public generally believe that certain goods can be more widely characterized by public good. One of these goods is also a higher education which in its nature also points to all the issues of its treatment as a public good. Thus, for example, it is most commonly believed that the growth of the highly educated population contributes to economic growth and the reduction of unemployment, democracy, gender equality, race, faith in openness to new knowledge.
