The estimation of the hidden economy may be considered as a human passion for knowing the unknown. Although a large literature on the hidden economy exists, the subject is still controversial at a very basic level. There are disagreements about: (1) the de®nition of the hidden activities; (2) the terms used to describe these activities; (3) the estimation or measurement procedures; and ®nally, (4) on the use of these estimates in economic analysis. In this paper we will only consider the issues related to estimation, economic and econometric analysis of the hidden economy. Thus we implicitly accept the term hidden economy and explicitly state the de®nition before entering into the main discussions. For a comprehensive study of past literature readers are referred to Feige (1989), Gaertner and Wenig (1985) and Tanzi (1982) and the large number of references in these books.the economic rationale
