EFFICIENCY OF ECONOMIC INTERVENTIONS OF GOVERNMENT

Year 2002, Volume: 2 Issue: 3, 56 - 90, 01.05.2002

Abstract

The aim of the study is to measure the effect of government intervention on the economic output of countries. For this purpose, the efficiency of government intervention is measured in 55 countries, by using Data Envelopment Analysis which is one of the most appropriate method. Generally, it is found that the regulation tool is more determinant than the expenditure tool on the countries’ economic output, and the success level of government intervention is closely related to the countries’ development level.
