Cost and Choice
by James M. Buchanan

For the fundamental economic notion of ‘cost’, or ‘opportunity cost’, is intimately related to the individualist and subjectivist perspective that is so essential to the Buchanan enterprise.” To be sure, the Austrian School of economists enunciated similar views of…

Politics by Principle, Not Interest
by James M. Buchanan and Roger D. Congleton
/ Learn More“Politics by principle is that which modern politics is not.
