abstract = {We combine two techniques to consistently estimate the effect of active labour market
programmes and, in particular, active labour market policy regimes. Our aim is to explicitly
estimate the threat effect of active labour market programmes. Based on Danish data (1998-
2002) from administrative registers we find a strong and significantly positive threat effect.
The threat effect is shown to reduce average unemployment duration by approximately three
weeks. The implications of this result are discussed.},
