Kelo and the Games People Play: A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Kelo v. City of New London
Abstract
This article argues that the Court's holding creates an incentive for private developers to rent-seek by asking local governments to transfer private property to them instead of purchasing it in the private market. Likewise, the Court's holding creates incentives for local governments to take private property pursuant to their eminent domain powers.
