Hardcover. Volume 8 in "The Selected Works of Gordon Tullock" draws from two highly acclaimed and path-breaking books by Gordon Tullock, The Social Dilemma (1974) and Autocracy (1987). In this work, Tullock explores political market behaviour that is based on conflict rather than on bargaining and thus behaviour that results in wealth reduction rather than in gains from trade. "The Social Dilemma: The Economics of War and Revolution" was written in response to the tumultuous events of the 1960s and 1970s. Specifically, after the constitutional crisis caused by the Watergate scandal, Tullock acknowledged the Hobbesian nature of democracy. He posed that political figures are locked in wealth-reducing circumstances by the nature of the political game and inherent problems found in democracy. In Autocracy, Tullock provides a scientific analysis of dictatorships, using a rational choice model to analyse the behaviour of individuals under autocracy. Whereas most scholars have applied public choice theory only to co-operative, democratic states, Tullock extends the theory into new territory. In addition, his insights contribute to the discussion of pressing current issues, such as the transformation of autocracies into democracies. "The Social Dilemma" reflects Tullock's contributions to areas of public choice that typically are ignored by mainstream scholars, who tend to focus on cooperative, democratic states. Tullock explores instead the workings of the dictatorial state and the economics of war between nations.Charles K. Rowley is Duncan Black Professor of Economics at George Mason University and a Senior Fellow of the James M. Buchanan Center for Political Economy at George Mason University. He is also General Director of the Locke Institute.The entire series includes: Volume 1 "Virginia Political Economy" Volume 2 "The Calculus of Consent" Volume 3 "The Organization of Inquiry" (November 2004) Volume 4 "The Economics of Politics" (February 2005) Volume 5 "The Rent-Seeking Society" (March 2005) Volume 6 "Bureaucracy" (June 2005) Volume 7 "The Economics and Politics of Wealth Redistribution" (July 2005) Volume 8 "The Social Dilemma: Of Autocracy, Revolution, Coup d'Etat, and War" (December 2005) Volume 9 "Law and Economics" (December 2005) Volume 10 "Economics without Frontiers" (January 2006) Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
