The field has existed for over 50 years and has been applied to many different policy areas and is a methodology that is applied within both government and academia. This handbook brings together leading authors in the field to describe and discuss the main current issues within the field. The handbook provides an overview of current developments across each of the sub-fields of microsimulation modelling such as tax-benefit, pensions, spatial, health, labour, consumption, transport and land use policy as well as macro-micro, environmental and demographic issues. It focuses also on the modelling different micro units such as households, firms and farms. Each chapter discusses its sub-field under the following headings the main methodologies of the sub-field, survey the literature in the area, critique the literature and propose future directions for research within the sub-field. 410 0$aContributions to economic analysis ;$vv. 293. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xDevelopment$xEconomic Development$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aEconomics$2bicssc 606 $aDevelopment economics$2bicssc 606 $aMicroeconomics$xMathematical models 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xDevelopment$xEconomic Development. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xGeneral. 615 7$aEconomics. 615 7$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aMicroeconomics$xMathematical models. 676 $a352.33011 701 $aO'Donoghue$b Cathal$0127067 801 0$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787916803321 996 $aHandbook of microsimulation modelling$93785111 997 $aUNINA
