The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) is an independent policy research center that aims to "bridge the gap between policy-makers and academics: bring academic rigor to policy discussion, and policy relevance to academic research." Most of the research materials available at this site pertain to the United Kingdom, homebase of the IFS. At the site, visitors can find results of IFS research on topics such as income distribution and tax, indirect taxes and consumer behavior, local government and the environment, and corporate issues. This site includes coverage of the 1997 United Kingdom general election and budget.
