Abstract

The reasons one should appreciate public choice are the same reasons that many people, including many economists, find it deeply unsettling. Public choice would not be where it is today without James Buchanan and Gordon Tullock. Nor would I likely be where I am today without their help. Both men had a large effect on my thinking early in my intellectual life, and both men gave me generous attention when I was only 20 years old. In this chapter, I reminisce about my particular experiences with them. I then propose that the public choice research agenda be extended, more than it has been, to analysis of foreign policy, and then give the results of one such analysis.
