Katz and Rosenberg (1989) were the first authors to propose and apply a measure of rent-seeking, based on changes in government budgetary allocations. This thesis, alter analyzing the budget structure and the budgeting system in general and then in the Turkish framework, suggests a model to measure rent-seeking in government budgetary allocations. The measure is based on the supposition that every deviation in the expenditure part of the budget occurs as a result of rent-seeking activity and is indicative of a waste of resources.68 leavesEnglishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBudget StructureRent-SeekingBudgeting SystemTurkeyHJ2151.4 .S245 1996Budget--Turkey.Thesis
