This volume consists of six parts, each part expounding on a
separate component of the field. Part 1, "Rent Seeking: An
Overview", brings together two papers that focus on problems of
defining rent-seeking behaviour and outline the nature of the
ongoing research program in a historical perspective. Part 2, "More
on Efficient Rent Seeking", contains four contributions in which
Tullock elaborates on his 1980 article on efficient rent seeking.
Part 3, The Environments of Rent Seeking", consists of eight papers
that collectively display the breadth of the rent-seeking concept.
Part 4, "The Cost of Rent Seeking", comprises seven papers that
address several important issues about the cost of rent seeking to
society as a whole. Part 5 is Tullock's short monograph Exchanges
and Contract's, in which he develops a systematic theory of
exchange in political markets. In Part 6, "Future Directions for
Rent-Seeking Research", Tullock focuses on the importance of
information in the political marketplace. This work has been
carefully constructed to build on the inaugural volume in this
collection and to ease students through the field in a clear and
concise manner.
