Economic management and the division of powers / Thomas J. Courchene.: Z1-1983/1-41-67E-PDF

"This monograph by Thomas J. Courchene focusses directly on the issue of federalism and economic management. It asks whether our ability to manage our economic affairs would be enhanced by a division of powers different from what we have today. Courchene first sets out a conceptual framework to address the question. He then looks at six particular areas of policy concern: equalization, social policy, monetary policy, fiscal policy, capital markets, and the internal economic union. In each case the object is to ascertain whether problems, where they exist, stem from constitutional design faults or simply unwise policy selections."--Preface.
