Summary "The papers in this much-needed collection employ Applied General Equilibrium methodology to address a wide variety of policy concerns within the European Union. In examining such a variety of issues with varying modelling features the contributors illustrate the flexibility of the approach, and demonstrate how Applied General Equilibrium methodology is an increasingly important tool for economic development."--Jacket
