Abstract
As explained in Chapter 2, the choice of policy instrument is facilitated by a match of the policy instruments’ characteristics with scientific and political dis-courses. Political discourses unravel in the policy processes of policy instrument choice. The political decision-making process leading to the choice of policy instrument and subsequently the choice of design are therefore dealt with in the chapters analysing the three empirical cases for WCI choice. The present chapter deals with the scientific discourse of the WCI. To clarify again: no discourse analysis is carried out.
