Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2002 im Fachbereich VWL - Finanzwissenschaft, Note: 2,7, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (Öffentliche Finanzwischenschaft), Veranstaltung: Public Choice, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Public Choice Ansichten zur Begründung von Wirtschaftswachstum wurden lange Zeit als nachrangiges Forschungsgebiet betrachtet, da moderne makroökonomische Wachstumstheorien den Prozess des Wirtschaftswachstums bis 1989 gut erklärt haben. Doch der Fall der Berliner Mauer und der Zerfall der Sowjetunion zeigten deutlich, dass politische Institutionen eine wesentlich bedeutendere Rolle in einem Wachstumsprozess spielen als vorher angenommen. Der Versuch, in den ex-kommunistischen Ländern durch die Implementierung demokratischer Systeme das Wirtschaftswachstum anzukurbeln, scheiterte, da gewisse Kriterien nicht erfüllt wurden. Diese Kriterien und empirischen Untersuchungen werde ich unter Punkt 2 vorstellen und erläutern. Die klassischen Wachstumsmodelle wurden vorrangig als Analyseinstrument zur Betrachtung der wesentlichen Wirtschaftswachstumsfaktoren benutzt. Als Basis dieser Betrachtungen galt die Produktionsfunktion. Politische und wirtschaftliche Institutionen wurden als vernachlässigbar betrachtet. Wirtschaftswachstum wurde durch Steigerung des Inputs und / oder durch bessere Ausnutzung der vorhandenen Ressourcen generiert (Human und Physisches Kapital und Technologischer Fortschritt), wobei eine dem Wachstum dienliche institutionelle Struktur vorausgesetzt wurde. Nach dem Zerfall der kommunistischen Systeme änderte sich der Schwerpunkt des Interessensgebietes von Public Choice. Der Fokus der Betrachtungen verschob sich vom Prozess politischer Willensbildung zu der institutionellen Betrachtung. Die Public Choice Betrachtung sieht in erster Linie Markt-Institutionen als wesentlichen Stimulierungsfaktor des Wirtschaftswachstums an. Sie betrachtet, im Gegensatz zu den modernen Wirtschaftsmodellen, institutionelle Rahmenbedingungen nicht als hinreichende Bedingung, sondern vielmehr als notwendige Bedingung. Um richtige politische Entscheidungen treffen zu können mit dem Ziel, Wirtschaftswachstum zu fördern, muss man also sowohl den Public Choice Ansatz als auch die modernen Wachstumsmodelle nehmen. Politische Entscheidungsträger müssen die richtige institutionelle Umgebung schaffen, damit Marktkräfte sich entfalten und Wirtschaftswachstum entstehen können. Die politischen Entscheider müssen sich in erster Linie also mit der Schaffung richtiger Strukturen beschäftigen, der Markt übernimmt dann die Steuerung der Ressourcen. [...]

Recent decades have seen the study of politics invaded by economic theories, methods and techniques. This book gives a concise, non- technical account of these 'public choice' theories and examines their influence upon government policies in English-speaking countries. Issues covered include slimming the state, privatising welfare and re- structuring government. Final chapters offer an alternative view of the basis of good government. This book offers a unique survey and critique of the ideas and influence of an important branch of political thought and it links with market theories. It is vital reading for students of both politics and economics.

First published in 1999, this volume is written by seasoned public choice scholars and is intended to make a significant contribution to the debate on peaceful coexistence and sustainable development in developing countries. The book contains a rich mixture of analytical ideas and views on collective choice and macroeconomic performance in developing countries. This book breaks new ground in that it is the first comprehensive application of the theory of public choice to collective decision making in developing societies. It provides both students of Third World studies and policy makers in developing societies an in-depth analysis for institutions for collective choice. For countries undergoing major reform of their political and economic institutions, public choice theory can provide significant and useful insights, and help these societies design and adopt institutional arrangements that enhance peaceful coexistence of groups, the creation of wealth and sustainable development. Specifically, the book successfully shows that: (1) the application of economic theory to the study of public policy in the developing countries can provide important insights into collective decision-making; (2) the application of public choice theory to the study of developing societies can significantly improve the efficiency of bureaucratic and governmental systems, and consequently, promote economic, political and social development; and (3) public choice can help developing societies design and sustain effective laws and institutions for peaceful coexistence of groups and achieve sustainable development.

In this volume, Sir Alan Peacock, one of Britain's most noted public economists, poses the question as to whether the history of economic thought is an essential part of the training of public finance economists. He argues that the perspective gained by studying the origins of public choice analysis can offer an important stimulus to scientific progress. The first lecture analyses the increasing popularity in recent years of the modernist, anti-historical point of view. The second criticises those theories of growth in government expenditure which ignore the political process. The third lecture draws on Adam Smith and David Hume to extend the conventional economic model of bureaucracy. In the final lecture, Peacock considers the problem of controlling public sector growth and points to ways of overcoming them. The book ends with short commentaries by seven public economists.

'. . . this compendium offers a solid introduction into an economic field that is gaining in influence.' – Detmar Doering, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung 'The first essay in this volume, "Public Choice at the Millennium," by the two editors, sets a high standard for all the essays to follow. . . The essay takes us through the early history of public choice research in a particularly lucid fashion. . . This first article is destined to be a must-read on many reading lists on both graduate and undergraduate courses in political economy. . . . the volume is likely to become a much-used reference tool. . . . for those researchers interested in a comprehensive discussion of the far-reaching literature in this area, and want some provocation in the mix, this is clearly the right choice.' – Sharon M. Oster, Public Choice 'Many of the chapters of this handbook will be an indispensable addition to any course reading list in public choice, or public economics. They serve as an excellent complement, integrating diverse lines of thoughts, to the core scholarly writings in the field. The essays are well-written and succeed, admirably, in accomplishing what a handbook must, making difficult and disparate material quite comprehensible to someone who wishes to become acquainted with the area.' – Harold M. Hochman, Lafayette College, US 'This is an extremely valuable insiders' account of what public choice is about. Presented in thirty well-reasoned and documented chapters, the book is a treasure trove for every political economist.' – Jürgen G. Backhaus, Maastricht University, The Netherlands This authoritative and encyclopaedic reference work provides a thorough account of the public choice approach to economics and politics. The Companion breaks new ground by joining together the most important issues in the field in a single comprehensive volume. It contains state-of-the-art discussions of both old and contemporary problems, including new work by the founding fathers as well as contributions by a new generation of younger scholars. The book reviews the literature of public choice, highlighting the common ground between all rational choice approaches to politics. It demonstrates the important impact of public choice on economics, political science, philosophy and sociology. It will be an indispensable source of reference for many years to the ideas, analytical methods and empirical research in the field. The Companion will serve as the standard reference work for all those engaged in the field of public choice and will be essential reading for politicians and policymakers, scholars in political science, public and social choice, as well as graduate students in economics, political science and public administration.
