Chapter 9 in Agent-based Models of the Economy, 2015, pp 146-160 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There are many reasons why supporting policy choice and design with ex-ante evaluation is a tough job, but two issues are often considered insurmountable. First, what-if analyses are required even if there is a complete lack of experiential, experimental and counterfactual evidence. Second, ex-ante evaluation is particularly important when general knowledge lacks the policy to implement, that is to say when public policies deal with issues that have recently emerged.
