Boekpresentatie: Cost-Benefit Analyses of Multi-Level Government, 24 juni 2010 (Europees Parlement)
The Case of EU Cohesion Policy and of US Federal Investment Policies
door Dr Alessandro Ferrara
Op 24 juni 2010 wordt in het Europees Parlement het boek voorgesteld "Cost-Benefit Analyses of Multi-Level Government. The Case of EU Cohesion Policy and of US Federal Investment Policies".
The book recently published in London and New York by Routledge provides an original framework for assessing public investment policies co-financed by Union (Federal) governments. This framework is applied to the EU Cohesion Policy and the US Federal Investment Policies. It strongly advocates the case for EU Cohesion Policy across all European Union. Guidelines such as the Impact Assessment Guidelines (European Commission), the Green Book (British Treasury), and Guidelines and Discount Rates for Benefit-Cost Analysis of Federal Programs (Executive Office of the US President) are also analyzed (book summary: http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415568210/ [1]).
