Abstract

The volume is a replacement of the Handbook der Ifo-Umfragen of 1989, which is out of print. It provides an overview of the regular surveys of the Ifo Institute and presents, in detail, the Ifo Business Survey, the Ifo Innovation Survey, new survey instruments in the services sector as well as the expert survey, the Ifo World Economic Survey. In addition it demonstrates the importance of business surveys for empirical business-cycle research in general, illustrates the informative value of survey results and discusses the possibilities of their usefulness for research against the background of contemporary methodological standards of business-cycle analysis and forecasting. The contributions in this manual come mainly from active researchers at the Ifo Institute, with supplementary chapters from external co-authors.
