How to Think Instead: The Resources of Political Theory

Hugh Stretton and Lionel Orchard

Chapter 8 in Public Goods, Public Enterprise, Public Choice, 1994, pp 220-277 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter recalls the traditions of thought which public choice theory seeks to replace. Whatever you want to know about government, we think you can find out more and understand it better without monocausal blinkers. Whatever your social purposes, we think they can be better served within the established intellectual traditions, or by inventive thought of like insight and complexity, than by exclusively economic simplifications of politics.
