Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite its analytic deficiencies and the doctrinaire purposes it has been made to serve, the rational choice approach to political analysis can have considerable explanatory value. Three examples are given of the utility of the sub‐field of rent‐seeking analysis in illuminating how public resources for agricultural development are allocated in developing countries: rural‐urban relations, resource allocation among agricultural services, and irrigation policy.
