Public Sector Efficiency Measurement: Applications of Data Envelopment Analysis - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

The core problem tackled in this book is the measurement of public-sector efficiency with Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The book is intended to inject new ideas into the diverse academic literature which up till now has lacked a critical book-length exploration of DEA. The text is readable and intuitive making it suitable for a broad audience, including policy-makers and civil servants working on the control of public expenditure, privatisation etc. Graduates and advanced undergraduates should also find this book a valuable introduction to the nature and implemenation of DEA. These will include students on economics, management science and accounting degrees. The book provides a realistic approach to DEA, acknowledging its problems such as the fundamental output measurement and variable selection problems which are rarely recognised in applied studies.
