Related Literature""; ""V. Conclusions""; ""References"" 330 3 $aIn the presence of competing interest groups, this paper examines how the form of votebuying contracts affects policy outcomes. We study contracts contingent upon individual votes, policy outcomes, and/or vote shares. Voters either care about their individual votes, or about the policy outcome. We find that vote buying is cheaper when what can be contracted upon coincides with what voters care about. Vote buying becomes extremely costly, or even impossible, when there is no such coincidence. Finally, vote buying is extremely cheap, or even free, when contracts can be contingent upon both individual votes and vote shares. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/011 606 $aCorruption 606 $aCompetition 606 $aAdministrative Processes in Public Organizations$2imf 606 $aAssociations$2imf 606 $aBureaucracy$2imf 606 $aClubs$2imf 606 $aCommittees$2imf 606 $aCompetition$2imf 606 $aCorporate crime$2imf 606 $aCorruption$2imf 606 $aCrime$2imf 606 $aCriminology$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aFinance: General$2imf 606 $aFinancial markets$2imf 606 $aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)$2imf 606 $aModels of Political Processes: Rent-seeking, Elections, Legislatures, and Voting Behavior$2imf 606 $aPositive Analysis of Policy-Making and Implementation$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aSocial Choice$2imf 606 $aTax incentives$2imf 606 $aTaxation$2imf 606 $aTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: General$2imf 606 $aWhite-collar crime$2imf 607 $aUnited Kingdom$2imf 615 0$aCorruption. 615 0$aCompetition. 615 7$aAdministrative Processes in Public Organizations 615 7$aAssociations 615 7$aBureaucracy 615 7$aClubs 615 7$aCommittees 615 7$aCompetition 615 7$aCorporate crime 615 7$aCorruption 615 7$aCrime 615 7$aCriminology 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aFinance: General 615 7$aFinancial markets 615 7$aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data) 615 7$aModels of Political Processes: Rent-seeking, Elections, Legislatures, and Voting Behavior 615 7$aPositive Analysis of Policy-Making and Implementation 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aSocial Choice 615 7$aTax incentives 615 7$aTaxation 615 7$aTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: General 615 7$aWhite-collar crime 700 $aVardy$b Felix$01815808 701 $aMorgan$b John$0117117 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 712 02$aIMF Fund. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964629203321 996 $aCorruption, Competition, and Contracts$94371582 997 $aUNINA
