Rent-Seeking for a Risky Rent

Journal of Theoretical Politics, 2005
Rent-seeking models have been used to predict and explain a wide variety of political decisions. This paper extends Tullock’s classic rent-seeking model to the case of a risky rent, where the winner of the rent-seeking contest does not receive the rent for sure, but only probabilistically.

Seeking Rents by Setting Rents: The Political Economy of Rent Seeking

The Economic Journal, 1987
In recent years, there has been a large number of papers on the subject of rent seeking. Most such works on rent seeking have taken the rent as exogenously determined by regulators.

2020
As long as the value of various resources differs through their varied uses, the concept of “rent” can be deduced from the concept of land rent.

Rents are a perfectly good economic category and there is absolutely nothing in general against seeking them. If I were to invent and patent a cure for cancer and then became extremely wealthy by claiming rents on the patent, most people would regard me as a public benefactor. Nevertheless, “rent-seeking” is regarded as an unadulterated evil.

Bargaining and rent seeking [PDF]

A proposal is accepted if at least q players accept it. Prior to the bargaining stage, players may make investments to increase their recognition probabili- ties ...
