Synopsis

"There is no question that a well-defined 'Chicago School' of political economy has emerged, built largely around the work of George J. Stigler and his colleagues. Chicago Studies in Political Economy brings together the key works in this field, works that have been extremely influential among economists who study political processes. It is a collection of enormous value."—Roger G. Noll

From the Back Cover

This book is made up of 20 previous published essays, edited by George J. Stigler. The volume takes as its point of departure the identification of the economic forces that determine a state's political institutions and the articulation of a theory of regulatory policy that accounts for those forces. Eight empirical studies of industry regulation follow, and the volume concludes with a consideration of several corrective policies.
