tailieunhanh - Policy and Politics in State Budgeting

This book accomplishes two goals. First, it provides an in-depth description of budgetary politics and policy-making in state budget offices. The data rendered in these chapters fills a significant gap in our understanding of state budget processes, and how budgeting and policy-making are linked in state budget offices. Except for a few important attempts in the early 1960s, very little is written about state budget office activities, which is surprising given their crucial position at the nexus of budgeting and policy-making in many states. The stories we tell here help public administration and political science scholars understand how we get collective budgetary choices, how state budget examiners influence those. | Bureaucracies Public Administration and Public Policy Policy and Politics in State Budgeting Kurt and Katherine G.
