Elgar Encyclopedia of Public Choice

Edited by Richard Jong-A-Pin and Christian Bjørnskov

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This definitive Encyclopedia explores the core ideas of public choice theory, including rational choice, voting theory, and political budget cycles. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, entries cover both empirical, theoretical, and philosophical principles in the field. They explore how political incentives, institutional constraints, and voter behavior interact in contexts ranging from collective action, to democratic backsliding, to fiscal federalism and rent-seeking.
