Chapter Chapter 6 in State Subsidies in the Global Economy, 2008, pp 103-132 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In the previous chapters I built the asset influence model of national subsidization efforts. In this chapter, I put the hypotheses to the test. The chapter is divided into three parts. In the first part, I discuss estimation concerns. In the second part, I break down the dependent variable into three groups—total aid, horizontal or economy-wide subsidies, and sectoral or sector-specific subsidies— and estimate the main and conditional effects of the independent variables on the disbursements of each of them. In the third part, I look at the effects of the variables on regional subsidies. How well does the model explain the choice between the various objectives of subsidies?
