Book Description:

Social scientists teach that politicians favor groups that are organized over those that are not. Gehlbach uses the postcommunist experience to suggest an alternative model of policy choice, focusing on the incentive of politicians to promote sectors that are relatively easy to tax, regardless of their organization.
