The Utility Maximizing Government Economic Adviser: A Comment

Alan Peacock

Public Choice, 1994, vol. 80, issue 1-2, 97 pages

Abstract: The author, drawing on his experience as a Chief Economic Adviser (Deputy Secretary) in the U.K. Government (1973-76) and occasional adviser in the 1980s, denies that his previous economic analyses of advice-giving support the thesis that government economic advisers become the slaves of politicians in power.
