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.

An IFIR conference on "New Directions in Fiscal Federalism", held in September, 2006, and co-sponsored by CESifo of Munich, Germany, has led to the publication of special issues of two academic journals. A selection of papers based on conference keynote addresses was published in the December, 2007 issue of CESifo Economic Studies. Read this introductory essay, written by the conference co-organizers, Thiess Buettner and David Wildasin, to learn more about this special issue and the articles that it contains. In addition, the December, 2008 issue of the Journal of Public Economics contains a collection of the contributed papers that were presented at the conference. This special issue, edited by Robin Boadway, Thiess Buettner, and David Wildasin, includes an introductory essay that outlines its contents.
