James M. Buchanan on Terminology - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 562 Terminology/Buchanan: "protective state": Provides citizens with protection in the form of legal certainty. Productive state: here, citizens agree on what public goods they want to provide, in what quantities and at what cost to whom. Both forms complement each other according to Buchanan's concept of economic liberalism. In this way, the state separates itself from the extremes of utopian anarchy (in the sense of a spontaneous, morally harmonizing coexistence order) and a threatening, expanding bureaucracy of a welfare state by Leviathan. See Buchanan 1975 (1). 1. James M. Buchanan, The Limits of Liberty. Between Anarchy and Leviathan, Chicago/London 1975. Dt.: James M. Buchanan, Die Grenzen der Freiheit. Zwischen Anarchie und Leviathan, Tübingen 1984. Wolfgang Kersting, „James M. Buchanan, Die Grenzen der Freiheit“ in: Manfred Brocker (Hg.) Geschichte des politischen Denkens. Das 20. Jahrhundert. Frankfurt/M. 2018 - - - Boudreaux I 8 Terminology/Buchanan/Boudreaux: With aggregative thinking, “the social welfare” is promoted by “the government,” with the latter treated as if it’s an organism possessing a brain, and as if that brain’s main interest lies not in serving itself but, rather, in serving the nation. BuchananVsKeynesianism: Buchanan called such aggregative thinking the “organismic” notion of collectives - that is, the collective as organism. _____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
