dc.description.abstract | This dissertation consists of three chapters each examining different areas of state policy. Each chapter revolves around an examination of different approaches taken by states in a particular area of policy. The questions answered arise in the contexts of income taxation, environmental regulation, and social insurance. Chapter 1 looks at impacts of a particular policy in one state by comparing that state to select other states. Chapter 2 looks at factors influencing the adoption of a policy by a group of states, and aspects of implementation. Chapter 3 looks at the relationship between variations in a policy applied in all states and differences in related outcomes. Each chapter makes distinct and novel contributions in its respective context. | |
