James McGill Buchanan
James McGill Buchanan se narodil 3. října 1919 v Murfreesboro ve státě Tennessee. Po studiu na Middle Tennessee College v r. 1940 pokračoval na universitě v Tennessee, kde roku 1941 získal hodnost magistra. V roce 1945 se oženil s Ann Bakke Buchanan. V roce 1948 dosáhl hodnosti doktora na University of Chicago. Dále se věnoval pedagogické činnosti na University of Virginia, poté krátce v Los Angeles a dalších 15 let opět ve Virginii na Virginia Polytechnic Institute. Poté působil jako ředitel Center for Study of Public Choice a profesor Harris University, Fairfax, stát Virginia.
Buchananovo myšlení velice ovlivnilo dílo švédského vědce K. Wicksella. Mnohé z jeho příspěvků byly rozpracováním a rozšířením wicksellovských témat.
James Buchanan rozšířil teorii veřejné volby mnoha způsoby. Nejznámější je pravděpodobně užití ekonomické mikroteorie na zkoumání politického systému, státní správy a zájmových organizací. Hlavním cílem rozšíření na tyto oblasti, zkoumané jinými společenskými vědami, bylo vytvořit koherentní pozitivní či deskriptivní teorii toho, jak skutečně fungují složky tohoto systému, nikoli normativní teorii toho, jak by fungovat měly. Jedinci, stejně jako ve firmách a v domácnostech, jednají ve svém vlastním zájmu a nelze se spoléhat na to, že by ti samí lidé jednali ve službách zájmu veřejného. Rozvoj této teorie veřejné volby je krokem k obecnější ekonomické teorii, která odvozuje chování různých veřejných organizací ze zájmů jejich členů.
Druhým příspěvkem k teorii veřejné volby je snazší vysvětlení množství politických jevů, kde všechny ekonomické zisky spotřebovává současná generace, zatímco většinu nákladů ponese generace budoucí, která zatím o současnosti nerozhoduje. Závěrem tohoto výzkumu je, že pokusy o korekci takového „selhání trhu“ politickými a administrativními prostředky by mohly vést k ještě závažnějšímu „politickému selhání“.
Třetí oblast se týká základů ekonomického a politického rozhodování. Buchanan zde analyzoval možnosti jednomyslného rozhodování. Koncepce dobrovolné směny mezi dvěma osobami je zde zobecněna na společenskou smlouvu, při níž nikdo netratí. Tento smluvní přístup J. Buchanan rozvinul do konstituční ekonomické teorie, v níž optimální rozhodovací pravidlo je určeno vážením vysokých rozhodovacích nákladů jednomyslnosti proti ztrátám, které jednotlivé osoby pocítí, když se nároky na jednomyslnost sníží. Systém řízení společnosti by měl zajistit rovnováhu mezi donucením (jež slouží k ochraně občanů před nejistotou a nebezpečím) a rizikem, že tyto donucovací pravomoci státu budou zneužity. Toto vedlo Buchanana k hlubokému porozumění společenských pravidel a norem. Důsledkem je zde společenská teorie, která integruje politické a ekonomické rozhodování a obsahuje i důležité části právního systému řízení.
James Buchanan vydal celou řadu publikací, ve kterých shrnul výsledky jednotlivých etap svého vědeckého bádání v oblasti teorie veřejné volby. Jeho přínos pro rozvoj ekonomické vědy byl nezanedbatelný a byl i po zásluze oceněn – cenou Franka Seidmana (1994), čestnými doktoráty různých univerzit, čestným členstvím v Americké ekonomické asociaci i oceněním nejvyšším – Nobelovou cenou.
James Buchanan zemřel ve věku nedožitých 93 let dne 9. ledna 2013.
