IFIR Publications
IFIR research is disseminated through publications, including the
IFIR working paper series. Many of these papers are later published
in professional journals or books.
A forthcoming special issue of CESifo Economic
Studies will publish a selection of papers from the
IFIR-CESifo conference on "New Directions in Fiscal Federalism." The
conference co-organizers, Thiess Buettner and David Wildasin, have
written an introduction to this symposium. Read this introductory essay to learn more about the
special issue, which is based on the keynote addresses presented at
the conference.
