    Notes: Increasingly, commentators have argued that provision of welfare services is better left to the private sector, In the UK, the ‘Thatcher years’ were associated with a philosophy that greater decision making should be left to individuals and that, if state provision of welfare were ‘rolled back’, the voluntary charitable sector would become more active in meeting the needs of the disadvantaged. While ‘standard’ economic theory suggests that cutting public expenditure ‘crowds in’ private giving and that tax inducements to donate to charities can prove effective, there are reasons to dispute the proposition that such a mix of fiscal policy will cause individuals to behave more altruistically. An appraisal of public policy changes, which includes the impact of policy changes on individuals' preferences, calls in question the assertion that private charitable giving will provide an adequate substitute for public expenditure. The same analytical framework proves effective in predicting a range of policy outcomes.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉ZUSAMMENFASSUNGIn zunehmendem Masse wird von Experten behauptet, die Bereitstellung von Wohlfdhrtseinrichtungen sei besser dem privaten Sektor zu überlassen. Die Thatcher-Jahre in Grossbritannien waren mit der Philosophie verhunden, die Verantwortung vom Staat auf den Einzelnen zu verlagern. Zöge sich der Staat aus der Bereitstellung von Wohlfahrtseinrichtungen zurück, würde sich der karitative Sektor aktiver in die Versorgung Bedürftiger einschalten. Laut der ökonomischen Standardtheorie führen Kürzungen öffentlicher Ausgaben zu einem Anstieg privater Spenden und macht sich die steuerliche Absetzbarkeit von Spenden bezahlt. Die Annahme, dass dieser fiskalpolitische Mix zu einem altruistischeren Verhalten der Individuen führt, lässt sich allerdings aus mehreren Gründen hinterfragen. Eine Beurteilung eines Kurswechsels des öffentlichen Sektors, die die Auswirkungen auf die individuellen Präferenzen beinhaltet, stellt die Behauptung in Frage, dass private Spendengelder öffentliche Ausgaben in ausreichendem Masse ersetzen könnten. Der gleiche analytische Rahmen ist ein wirksames Instrument, um weitere politische Ergebnisse vorherzusagen.〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉RÉSUMÉDe plus en plus souvent, les experts ont soutenu que les services sociaux devaient plutǒt ětre fournis par le secteur privé. Au Royaume Uni, les ‘années Thatcher’étaient associées avec une philosophie prévoyant une plus grand liberté de détcision laissée a l'individu et que, au cas où l'état reduisait la provision des services sociaux, les institutions charitables volontaires deviendraient plus actives pour satisfaire les besoins des ‘marginaux’. Tandis que la théorie economique normale suggère que les réductions des dépenses publiques font augmenter les contributions privées et que les encouragements fiscaux è contribuer è des institutions charitables peuvent se montrer efficaces, des raisons existent pourtant qui contestent le constat qu'une telle combinaison de politiques fiscales ménerait è un comportement individuel pluis altruiste. Une évaluation des changements dans la politique sociale, comprenant l'impacte de ces changements sur les pétférences des individus, met en question le constat que les contributions charitables privées remplacent convenablement les dépenses publiques. Le méme cadre analytique se montre efficace é la prévision d'une gamme d'issus de politique.

    Notes: Concluding comments It has been shown that the positive correlation between income and electoral turnout is consistent with an opportunity cost argument. The argument highlights the impact of uncertainty costs generated by a broadening of the powers of government. It has implications for equity inasmuch as such costs are borne differentially. It thereby calls into question public policy with respect to the tax treatment of political participation expenditures.

    Notes: Abstract The confidence with which politicians defend their policies is in marked contrast to the qualifications which academic researchers attach to their results. The difference is indicative of a failure of the political market, whereby politicians have an incentive to select policies for electoral and ideological reasons and to minimise any uncertainty associated with policy effectiveness. In this scenario dissension between economists is of value if it alerts individuals to the sensitivity of policy ‘answers’ to the framework in which they are derived. Moreover, with government failure, public choice analysts are faced with the problem of how best to amend policy advice in order to allow for potential distortion at the hands of politicians.
