1.6. Application of models in the process of legislation
To what extent have quantitative models been used in the formulation of policy? The author addresses this question by examining two issues confronted by the Ninety-fourth Congress, oil price decontrol and synthetic fuels commercialization. He describes the influence of results from the large-scale models used to analyze the proposed policies and identifies conditions that apparently accounted for the successful use of these models.
