Bootleggers and Baptists

Bootleggers and Baptists

featuring Angela Dills

Just what does it take to transform
a proposed rule into law? What
forces are at work that enable
some ideas to become regulation
while others fail? Paying particular attention to public choice perspectives, Professor Dills will present various theories on how
regulation is conceived and birthed.
Noting that legislative and
bureaucratic actors, much like market actors, are self-interested, she will highlight the Baptist and Bootlegger’s theory of regulation first posited by Clemson University Emeritus Professor Bruce Yandle. The talk provides a bevy of entertaining and outrageous examples of government regulation run amok.
