Klaus M. Schmidt and Monika Schnitzer have written an excellent paper that summarizes the pure theoretical and applied literature on methods of privatization and tries to compare their relative advantages using a normative approach: “What method of privatization should [a government] use if it wants to achieve an efficient allocation of ownership rights and generate as much revenue as possible?” (1997, p. 97).
