The Political Economy of Pressure Groups

Abstract: Sebbene l’influenza dei gruppi di pressione sulle scelte pubbliche sia innegabile, non è facile dimostrare in qual modo essa si esercita. Un’occasione per approfondire l’argomento è costituita dalla pubblicazione del volume curato da Dennis Mueller, The Political Economy of Growth, che raccoglie una serie di saggi diretti a commentare la nota teoria di Mancur Olson sugli effetti dei gruppi d’interesse sul saggio di sviluppo dell’economia.L’esame dei numerosi saggi contenuti nel volume (non tutti, in verità, … Show more
