Abstract
Ashcroft B. (1982) The measurement of the impact of regional policies in Europe: a survey and critique, Reg. Studies 16, 287–305. The paper examines the broad approaches and particular methods used to estimate the impact of regional policies in several European countries. The strengths and weaknesses of the major approaches are identified. The total effects, their components and the effects of individual policy instruments are considered. The theory and measurement of the costs and benefits of regional policy is examined. Some areas for further research are suggested.
