Impact analysis of economic policy is a subject which is gaining in
creasing interest in both theoretical and applied economic
research. Two main reasons for the growing interest can be
distinguished. First, the situation of the government's finances is
making it more than ever necessary to assess critically the effects
of the instruments used to pursue public policy goals. Secondly,
because of the economic stagnation government will be increasingly
appealed to for support. Impact analysis, however, is hampered by
three major problems: methodological deficiencies, lack of
econometric approaches which have been adapted to the specific
conditions of this kind of analysis and data availability. The
present book deals with these problems in the context of regional
economic policy. However, the main findings are broadly applicable
in various other fields. This book is primarily oriented towards
those who have a practical interest. Therefore, attention is mostly
paid to the practical aspects of the methodology and the
measurements methods. Furthermore, the methodologi cal and
econometric parts are supplemented by two extensive case studies. -
Three people have contributed constructive criticisms and
suggestions on some chapters of the book: Peter Nijkamp, Theo
Dijkstra and Manfred Fischer. I am very grateful for their support.
They, of course, share no blame for any deficiences in the present
form of the book. I also gratefully acknowledge the assistance of
Harry Barkema and Marja Schuring with the computations."
