“…Charles Schultze, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and former chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, argues that "the one thing that most democratic systems-and especially the American one-cannot do well at all is to make critical choices among particular firms, municipalities, or regions, determining coldbloodedly which shall prosper and which shall not" (Schultze 1983, 9). Others add that no analytic tools exist that can offer clear direction for industrial policy (Bardach 1984;Eads 1981;Krugman 1983). Research on the use of social science knowledge in policymaking backs the critics: studies find that policymakers have little interest in using analysis except when it supports ends they already want to achieve.…”
