About this ebook
In the United States, the express purpose of regulation is, according to a 1993 executive order, to "protect or improve the health and safety of the public, the environment, or the well-being of the American people."

In his academic research, Jerry Ellig (1962-2021) focused on regulatory impact analysis, regulation of network industries, and performance management in government. But to ensure his work would make a difference in people's lives, he never forgot the need for a "bridge" connecting the academy and the policy world. It was one he traversed, back and forth, throughout his career. An assistant professor of economics at George Mason University between 1989 and 1995, Ellig served as a senior economist for the Joint Economic Committee of the US Congress (1995-96) before returning to Mason to join the university's Mercatus Center as a senior research fellow. Between 2001 and 2003 Ellig was deputy director and acting director of the Office of Policy and Planning at the Federal Trade Commission, after which he again returned to Mercatus and to a position as adjunct professor in Mason's School of Law (2005-08). In 2017 Ellig became chief economist at the Federal Communications Commission and a year later joined the George Washington University Regulatory Studies Center as a research professor. Ellig received his BA in economics from Xavier University and his MA and PhD in economics from Mason. He passed away suddenly in January 2021, leaving behind him his wife of 28 years, Sandy Chiong, and their daughter, Katherine.
