摘要：

The efficiency of governments may be influenced by institutional factors and by the intensity of monitoring by citizens. This paper develops a theory of optimal monitoring and then uses frontier estimation techniques to construct measures of efficiency for police departments in 141 cities. Using these efficiency measures, it is possible to test the extent to which efficiency is influenced by the presence of a professional city manager and by characteristics of the citizens.
