Abstract
|
:
|
A comprehensive insight into Mancur Olson's work as well as extensions and applications of his work. Some chapters directly assess Olson`s contributions, focusing on distinguishing what was original in his works from what was already in the literature, and assess his impact on the fields of public economics and economic history.
