The model is also used to discuss other institutions that involve rent-seeking activities, such as the patent system and import quotas.

Investments in rent-seeking,sions (see Tullock, 1989). In this article I attempt to move toward explaining lobbying or rent-seeking investments by examining the questions, “How do firms decide how much to spend on campaign contributions?” and “Do these decisions reflect any underlying models of decision making?”

Der Ingenieur und seine Designeran (1983) extended Tullock’s model to a long-run setting, i.e., free entry, and found that under these conditions rents will be dissipated. Tullock (1983) agreed in part, but still maintained that where marginal costs were rapidly falling or rising throughout, Corcoran’s long-run solution does not pertain.

I will also show the pedagogical value of using this unifying framework to study rent-seeking behavior, and I will present an important result concerning the possibility of overdissipation as stated in Tullock’s original model.

A number of studies followed Tullock’s 1980 paper (Corcoran, 1984; Corcoran and Karels, 1985; Higgins, Shugart and Tollison, 1985; Tullock, 1984, 1985, and 1987) which explore the dissipation of excess rents under various assumptions.
