The Efficiency of Local Public-Service Production
Reforms replacing municipal cooperations by centralized municipalities often aim at increasing municipal efficiency. Empirical evidence supporting this aim, however, is ambiguous. Our paper analyzes the effect of institutions on municipal efficiency. In particular, we distinguish two archetypal institutional settings, a centralized and a confederal one, and argue that bureaucrats in a centralized setting are able to increase the fiscal residual. …
Does intermunicipal cooperation increase efficiency? A conditional metafrontier approach for the Hessian wastewater sector
This paper analyses the relationship between intermunicipal cooperation and efficiency of public service provision. Organisational arrangements of public service production, including self-provision, joint provision or contracting, affect incentives and internal transaction costs. Hence, cooperation gains from scale effects need to be balanced against technical inefficiencies. We analyse relative efficiency of wastewater disposal for German munic…
Hospital Workload and Adverse Events
CONTEXT: Hospitals are under pressure to increase revenue and lower costs, and at the same time, they face dramatic variation in clinical demand. OBJECTIVE: : We sought to determine the relationship between peak hospital workload and rates of adverse events (AEs). METHODS: A random sample of 24,676 adult patients discharged from the medical/surgical services at 4 US hospitals (2 urban and 2 suburban teaching hospitals) from October 2000 to Septem…
The Location Decisions and Operations of High Technology Organizations in Washington State
HAUG P. (1991) The location decisions and operations of high technology organizations in Washington State, Reg. Studies 25, 525–541. Numerous studies exist on high technology industry regional development theories, location decisions, and agglomerations in the United States, but no major research has studied Washington State, which represents a leading high technology region. This paper presents findings from a mail survey of 363 high technology …
US high technology multinationals and Silicon Glen
Haug P. (1986) US high technology multinationals and Silicon Glen, Reg. Studies 20, 103–116. Future growth and investment by high technology industries have generated increasing interest in the agglomeration tendencies of high technology firms. Governments throughout the world are seeking to develop high technology firm concentrations similar to Silicon Valley in California. An area that represents one of the largest high technology industry clus…
