This Policy Inventory has been conceived as both a learning exercise and a didactic one. The impact of the various government interventions during the crisis remains unknown, and there are many questions regarding the design and implementation of macroeconomic and sectoral policies, active labor market and social protection programs, the practice of social dialogue, and the enforcement of international labor standards. In this environment of uncertainty, a database with an inventory of policies enacted during the height of the financial crisis, the years 2008–2010, offers a tremendous analytic tool to learn more about what policies countries relied on, what interventions appear to be more successful, and what the implications are for the design of policy packages to deal with future downturns.
