Size of cash and near-cash transfer programmes (unemployment benefits, means-tested assistance, universal child benefits). Architecturally distinct from forced-saving schemes — see condition welfare_architecture.
General government spending as share of GDP, excluding transfers already captured under fiscal.transfer_expansion to avoid double-counting.
Sector-specific licensing regimes, concentration / quota allocation, state-controlled entry (energy, telecoms, healthcare, banking).
Universal Coverage Scheme (UCS, "30-baht scheme") launched as Thaksin-era flagship in pilot form April 2001, nationwide October 2001, and statutorily established under National Health Security Act B.E. 2545 (promulgated 18 November 2002). Provided universal access to primary and secondary healthcare at flat 30-baht (~$0.75) copayment per episode (copay abolished 2006, reinstated 2012). Covered ~47m Thais who had been without Civil Servants Medical Benefits Scheme or Social Security Scheme coverage. Financed via general taxation with per-capita capitation payment to NHSO-contracted providers (~Bt 2,895/year per enrollee by 2010). Later widely validated empirically (Gruber et al (2014); Limwattananon et al (2015)) as reducing catastrophic health expenditure.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
