Buchanan. This book is a unique blend of economics and political science that helped create significant new subfields in each discipline respectively, namely, the public choice school and constitutional political economy. Charles K. Rowley, Duncan Black Professor of Economics at George Mason University, points out in his introduction, "The Calculus of Consent" is, by a wide margin, the most widely cited publication of each coauthor and, by general agreement, their most important scientific contribution." The book is divided into four parts, each consisting of several chapters. The introduction by Professor Rowley provides a short overview of the book and identifies key insights that permeated the bounds of economics and political science and created an enduring nexus between the two sciences. Part I establishes the conceptual framework of the book's subject; part II defines the realm of social choice; part III applies the logic developed in part II to describe a range of decision-making rules, most notably, the rule of simple majority; while part IV explores the economics and ethics of democracy.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 155mmItem Length: 230mmItem Weight: 598gAuthor: Gordon Tullock, James M Buchanan, Charles Kershaw RowleGenre: Business & FinanceTopic: Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2004 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
