# References on Economics of Vouchers

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-04-07)

I am interested in key references on the economics of vouchers. In particular I am interested in asking, "Under what conditions are vouchers more or less useful?"

Tangentially related resources of a high quality are also welcome.

The kinds of references which I am looking for:

1. Papers and books
2. Informal works (eg a YouTube recording of a good talk)

**Tags:** reference-request, education-economics
