The book theoretically explains and empirically quantifies these interactions. The analysis includes both public good policies and redistributive policies. Part I of the book presents the conceptual foundations of political-economic bargaining and interest group analysis. After presenting the underlying theory, Part II of the book examines ideology, prescription and political power coefficients; Part III analyzes a number of specific structures; and Part IV presents a framework for political econometrics with a number of empirical applications and testable hypotheses. In all four parts of the book, four analytical dimensions of public policy are distinguished: governance structures, political economy, mechanism design and incidence. 517 3 $aPolitical Power & Economic Policy 606 $aPower (Social sciences) 606 $aEconomic policy 615 0$aPower (Social sciences) 615 0$aEconomic policy. 676 $a330.01 686 $aBUS069000$2bisacsh 700 $aRausser$b Gordon C.$068501 702 $aSwinnen$b Johan F.
