  • The Life and Times of Gordon Tullock
    Public Choice (2012) 152:3–27 DOI 10.1007/s11127-011-9899-3 The life and times of Gordon Tullock Charles K. Rowley · Daniel Houser Received: 24 October 2011 / Accepted: 25 October 2011 / Published online: 10 November 2011 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011 Abstract Gordon Tullock is a founding father of public choice. In an academic career that has spanned 50 years, he forged much of the research agenda of the public choice program and he founded and edited Public Choice, the key journal of public choice scholarship. Tullock, however did much more than this. This Special Issue of Public Choice honors Gordon Tullock in precisely the manner that he most values: the creation of new ideas across the vast range of his own scholarly interests. Keywords Gordon Tullock · Tullock’s life · Tullock’s times Si monumentum requiris, circumspice 1 Innocence of youth Gordon Tullock was born in Rockford, Illinois on February 13, 1922. His father, George Tullock, was a hardy Midwesterner of Scottish ancestry. His mother, Helen, nee Crumb, was of equally hardy Pennsylvania-Dutch stock. His father’s elder brother, Tom, and his two children, also lived in Rockford, but some distance away. So Gordon had no close and continuing relationship with them. Both of Gordon’s grandfathers died before he was old enough to remember them. Both of his grandmothers ‘lived with us for some time, but fortunately not at the same time’ (Tullock 2009:1) Rockford, often referred to as the ‘Forest City’, was a mid-sized city with a 64,000 pop- ulation in 1922, when Gordon Tullock was born.

THE POLITICS OF UNREGULATION: PUBLIC CHOICE AND LIMITS ON GOVERNMENT Peter L. Kahn t I Many economists and economically-minded lawyers in recent years have come to view much governmental regulation of business as the unfortunate result of a perverse quirk in our political system., In this view, representative democracy gives unwarranted weight to the interests of small and discrete pressure groups, whose interests may be directly opposed to the interests of the larger public.2 Through an analysis of the effect of the size of a lobbying group on its political effectiveness, 3 advocates of this view (hereinafter de- scribed as "public choice theory" or the economic theory of legisla- tion) have concluded that small groups of beneficiaries are more effective in lobbying for special interest legislation than those larger groups which pay the bills are in resisting it.

  • Robert Tollison and the Economics of Politics
    Robert D. Tollison and the economics of politics Roger D. Congleton West Virginia University Abstract: Robert Tollison was the most prolific of the second generation of public choice scholars from the Virginia School. Tollison’s many applications of the eco- nomic choice approach to politics, law, regulations and religion demonstrated that narrow self-interest can account for a broad range of political, economic, and other social phenomena. Tollison was a talented editor and an inspiring teacher. He edited several influential books and was coeditor of the journal Public Choice for 18 years, in- creasing its prominence and impact. He taught several generations of students, super- vising 49 Ph.D. dissertations and coauthoring papers with most of his students to help them launch their own academic careers. He was also director of the Center for Study of Public Choice during its glory days at George Mason University. 1. Tollison the scholar Robert Tollison was a remarkably productive man, combining careers as scholar, public serv- ant, mentor, and economic consultant in a manner that he made look easy. He nearly always seemed to be relaxed and easygoing. Those characteristics, together with his modesty, made his accomplishments easy to overlook. In this short piece, I try to give readers a sense of his contributions to public choice and of the skill set and personality traits that contributed to them. Before doing so, it is useful to reflect on Tollison’s scholarly output. His curriculum vi- tae lists 13 books, 22 edited collections, and seven editions of a two-volume principles of economics textbook.

THREE ESSAYS ON ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Applied Economics by Patrick Arthur McLaughlin May 2008 Accepted by: Daniel Benjamin, Committee Chair Scott Baier Bentley Coffey Robert Tollison ABSTRACT This dissertation addresses the broad topic of appropriate metrics, proxies, and estimation methods in environmental economics and international trade research, presented as three separate studies. The first, entitled, “Something in the Water? Testing for Groundwater Quality Information in the Housing Market,” examines how informed real estate markets are with respect to groundwater quality by using a couple of different proxies for groundwater quality in a hedonic framework. This research topic has potentially suffered from imperfect proxies and incomplete information, which I test. In the second, entitled, “Do Economic Integration Agreements Actually Work? Issues in Understanding the Causes and Consequences of the Growth in Regionalism,” I address a topic in international trade that has consistently suffered from endogeneity biases in estimations: the effect of economic integration agreements on bilateral trade flows.

  • Public Choice As an Academic Enterprise
    Public Choice as an Academic Enterprise: Charlottesville, Blacksburg, and Fairfax Retrospectively Viewed Richard E. Wagner Department of Economics George Mason University Fairfax, VA 22030 703-993-1132 [email protected] Abstract This paper treats the development of public choice as an academic enterprise that originated at the University of Virginia and which grew to maturity at VPI. It seeks to distinguish between the particularistic and personal sources of programmatic success on the one hand, and institutional and organizational sources on the other. Only to the extent the success is institutional or organizational is there something that potentially can be duplicated through the adoption of an appropriate institutional framework. Otherwise the success is idiosyncratic, and must be attributed to the particular qualities of James Buchanan and Gordon Tullock, independently of the institutional and organizational framework. Public Choice as an Academic Enterprise: Charlottesville, Blacksburg, and Fairfax Retrospectively Viewed1 The purpose of this paper is to explore the success of public choice as an academic enterprise, and to do so by paying particular attention to whatever insights might have resulted from my having been present at all three locations: Charlottesville, Blacksburg, and Fairfax. I am one of only two people (Robert D. Tollison being the other) who went through the graduate program at the University of Virginia (1963-66), and who was a faculty member at both VPI (1973-79) and George Mason University (since 1988). Organizationally speaking, public choice was founded at the University of Virginia, but it was at VPI where public choice experienced its prime years of maturity and achieved a major presence on the intellectual radar screen.

Profiling giants: The networks and influence of Buchanan and Tullock Etienne Farvaque* Frédéric Gannon† Abstract: This paper uses network analysis to measure the positions and influences of two prominent academics, James M. Buchanan and Gordon Tullock, founders of public choice theory. First, we recount parallel accounts of their lives. Second, we provide a literature review and outline the standard centrality measures insisting on their relevance in assessing the two authors’ roles in a given network. Third, we analyze their respective influences through the lens of network analysis by providing details on the publication records and, overall, co-authorship networks of the two scholars. We also explore their academic genealogy and show in particular that (i) Buchanan and Tullock’s careers followed parallel paths and co-founded public choice theory and the journal of the same name, although the two had few common works; (ii) though being apparently very similar as to their centrality in the co-authoring network under scrutiny, their ego-networks were structured very differently, revealing diverse positions in the field and, thus, different influences on the discipline.
