The Public Choice Society was established in 1965 by Gordon Tullock and James Buchanan. Its goal is to facilitate the exchange of work, and ideas, at the intersection between economics, political science, and sociology. It started when scholars from all three of these groups became interested in the application of essentially economic methods to problems normally dealt with by political theorists. It has retained strong traces of economic methodology, but new and fruitful techniques have been developed that are not clearly identified with any self-contained discipline.
