This volume presents a collection of thirty-four essays and shorter
works by James M. Buchanan that represent the brilliance of his
founding work on public-choice theory.
The work of James M. Buchanan is perhaps most often associated
with his helping to found public-choice theory. Buchanan's
book-length works such as "The Calculus of Consent" or "The Reason
of Rules" (Volumes 3 and 10, respectively, in Liberty Fund's "The
Collected Works of James M. Buchanan") are best known for their
brilliant application of market behavioral models to government.
But Buchanan's shorter works represented here all show originality
and insight as well as clear articulation of important theoretical
principles. What's more, these essays have all had a significant
impact on the subsequent literature about public choice.
In this volume, the works are broken down into these major
categorical groupings:
1.General Approach
2.Public Choice and Its Critics
3.Voters
4.Voting Models
5.Rent Seeking
6.Regulation
7.Public Choice and Public Expenditures
As Robert D. Tollison concludes his foreword to this volumes,
"Read in conjunction with the other parts of the 'Collected Works,
' these papers offer the reader a fuller appreciation of the
public-choice revolution and its impact and prospects."
James M. Buchanan is an eminent economist who won the Alfred Nobel
Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1986 and is considered one
of the greatest scholars of liberty in the twentieth century.
