Economics

The Intellectual Legacy of Gordon Tullock

ABSTRACT

Gordon Tullock considered economics a tool that could be used to study and understand all human activity and even activity in nonhuman societies. The symposium gave scholars from a range of disciplines an opportunity to assess how Tullock's core ideas are advancing our understanding of a free society and continuing to influence the academic debate in multiple disciplines.
