Giusi,
    Check out the writings of Richard McCleary and those of George Box and George Tiao.
You'll find that they address interrupted time series analysis, when it is used to 
assess impacts of policies and other phenomena.
    Transfer functions are one way of assessing such impacts.  But transfer functions generally
assume the independence of the transfer function from the arma noise.  Box and Jenkins specifically mention this assumption in their classical work, Time Series Analysis: Forecasting
and Control, 2nd edition.  The VAR may not hold to that assumption and if the IRF is being
applied to that analysis, may not exactly represent a transfer function in the strict classical
definition of the term.
     Regards,
                Robert
