The reason for ‘The Reason of Rules’

Constitutional Political Economy, 2014, vol. 25, issue 1, 103-109

Abstract: This paper is an attempt to locate the writing of the book, The Reason of Rules, in its intellectual and temporal setting. The object is to capture something of the ambitions of the book and to assess its limitations as perceived three decades after its writing. It includes some personal reflections on the experience of Buchanan as a co-author. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014
