Of course, this was a standard conclusion of implementation research, which of course was well placed to examine unintended consequences precisely because it examined what happened after policies were enacted–although typically considering only a limited stretch of time. The classic in this genre is Jeffrey L. Pressman and Aaron Wildavsky, Implementation (Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1973).
