The publication of volumes 3 and 4 of the Handbook of Public
Economics affords us several opportunities: to address lacunae in
the original two volumes of this series, to revisit topics on which
there has been substantial new research, and to address topics that
have grown in importance. Indeed, many of the papers individually
encompass all three of these elements. For each chapter relates to
one from an earlier volume, the new contribution is free standing,
written with the knowledge that the reader retains the opportunity
to review the earlier chapter to compare perspectives and consider
material that the current author has chosen not to cover. Indeed,
such comparisons illuminate the evolution of the field during the
two decades that have elapsed since work first began on the
chapters in volume 1. Taken together, the four volumes offer a
comprehensive review of research in public economics over the past
few decades, written by many of the field's leading
researchers.
