James Buchanan's Democratic Approach to Public Finance
Channel: Mercatus Center
Date: 2018-03-27

In the third video in our series, Richard Wagner outlines the intellectual history of James Buchanan's work articulating a theory of public finance that reflects the will of the people, not of the government or special interests.

(This video is partially funded by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation on “Work, Self- governance, and the Challenge of Unsustainable Dependency.” The grant is for a three-year project to explore the themes of work and self-governance as well as the root causes and consequences of the modern shift toward a greater reliance on government efforts to solve collective challenges.)
