Description

This paper attempts an efficiency analysis of the merger of the municipalities of the Kyoto, Shiga, and Hyogo prefectures using DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis). The results show that: (1) A merger of many municipalities generally tends to reduce the efficiency value; (2) Based on MI(Malmquist Index), a merger does not always increase an efficiency value.
