Markets vs. Mandates is based on the Hoover Institution’s founding principle of generating ideas that advance healthy and free societies. The research program evaluates when, if, and how institutions and policies can improve environmental quality while also promoting economic prosperity and individual freedom. It does so by conducting research that analyzes the incentives that policies create, rather than hopes that inspired them.
