Introduction - think about this, but write it last Some facts - to motivate (cite sources!) Cause for government role in economy - clear and concise - NOT DETAILED Problem with market outcome? What is the source of the market failure? (Efficiency) AND/OR Is there a problem with Equality? Equity? Policy/program/law examined in the paper Clear and concise description Key findings Roughly three bullets Don't worry about these until the evaluation section is far along. Problem Detailed description of the problem Evidence of the problem Data - in charts/tables Economics More detailed discussion of the market failure/inequality Law/Policy/Program created/passed/proposed to eliminate/reduce/offset problem Introduction to section that includes the title of law/policy/program that you are examining History When and how did this program/policy/law come into being? How old is the problem? Did it replace another program? Briefly describe what came before Why did the program/policy/law come into being when it did? continuesStructure of the program/policy/law: Who administers it? (oversight / runs it) Federal, state and local government roles? Are nongovernmentalonprofits involved? How is it funded? Federal, state, and local government roles in financing? Other sources of funding? Private charity? Who provides the actual service? Government? Contracted out to the private sector? Who? Who determines eligibility and benefit levels, fines, whatever? Are there clear rules? Federal? Or can states or local governments decide? Is decision shared? How does the law/policy/program work for the targeted applicant/participant? (This could be a person, a family, a business, a school, a place, or any other target.) What must someone/organization/business/whatever do to participate/be affected? What does the participant get? What benefits do participants/affected parties receive? Or what regulations and fines do they face? Provide examples Use one or more REAL examples OR Create hypothetical person, place, whatever Give them characteristics Walk through what would happen to them This section may have some data analysis Economics - why this policy is/can be expected to work WARNING: Make sure you and your reader know definitions of terms, names of agencies (rather than just acronyms - which you can use once defined), etc.Evaluation Has the law/policy/program been evaluated? (If proposed, is there analysis?) No evaluations done by others? Say something about why: Too new? Failure to evaluate? Any evidence for you to evaluate? Using evaluations of others PLUS information that you have gathered, address the following: Strengths of law/policy/program Does it accomplish its goals? How? Evidence? Weaknesses of law/policy/program If goals are not reached, or not fully, can law/policy/program be held responsible? Consider the design of the law/policy/program Consider the implementation of the law/policy/program Can be positive, negative, mixed (some good, some not good), or inconclusive Evidence may not show causality, but it may show correlation. Be clear about this. Remember: It is not your job to judge if the program is "good" or "bad". You want to show all sides. Better alternatives out there? This section may have some data analysis Conclusion
