Risk-Risk Analysis -- The Fatality and Injury Costs of Expenditures -- Health-Health Analysis: A New Way to Evaluate Health and Safety Regulation -- Cross-Country Analyses Don't Estimate Health-Health Responses -- Controlling for Causality in the Link from Income to Mortality -- Mortality Risks Induced by the Costs of Regulations -- Regulatory Review of Environmental Policy: The Potential Role of Health-Health Analysis.
In: Springer Nature eBookSummary: Regulations to promote health and safety may be costly relative to the expected health and safety benefits, and may actually have negative effects on health and safety. These negative effects, or costs, may be due to reduced private spending on health and safety, moral hazard, or the creation of new risks. This volume considers the use of costs--benefit analysis, risk--risk analysis, and health--health analysis to determine the mortality cost associated with regulatory expenditures.
