“
I am a public choice economist focusing on institutional change. My recent topics include bottom-up socialism, coordination between think tanks & academia, eminent domain in Michigan cf. North Carolina, campaign finance, and the intellectual history of James Buchanan. Current papers include using elasticity to track infectious disease outbreaks and the formalization of informal rules. I am writing a book that brings a fiscal rules approach to current U.S. fiscal policy analysis. On my horizon, I have in mind a popular book that mixes the work of William Baumol, Armen Alchian, and Henry Manne to reframe design copyists as adaptive-imitative entrepreneurs.
