For more on rent seeking by factions engaged in political economy research, pedagogy, polciy formation/prescription etc. see: "The Sociology of Scientific Knowledge: Some Thoughts on the Possibilities" by Wade Hands, reprinted in "Science Bought and Sold: Essays in the Economics of Science" edited by Philip Mirowski and Esther-Mirjam Sent.
