FISCAL POLICY:AN INTRO by Graham Hockley
Economic policies are being continuously reassessed as governments change. Trends in taxation, monetary control and public borrowing are spread throughout the developed world and are monitored through such organizations as the OECD. In the UK there has been less direct state provision in recent years and there have been changes in regulating currency and financial markets, but how far are these fiscal policies reflected in other countries? This new edition of a successful text book provides the reader with a comprehensive introduction to the essentials of fiscal policy concentrating on developments in recent decades. In its coverage the author analyzes not only the financial issues but also the real problems of the economy: inflation, unemployment, housing, poverty. He analyzes up-to-date material from USA, Australia and Japan and focuses particularly on the current changes in Europe. G.C. Hockley first describes the role of the state, public choice, government expenditure and taxation, and national debt. He then analyzes in depth the aims and principles of public finance covering such areas such as the allocation of resources, ability to pay and ownership. This book should be of interest to introductory students and undergraduates of finance, economics, public administration, social administration, law, politics, accounting; and for those studying for professional qualifications - NALGO (National and Local Government Offices Assoc.), CIPFA (Chartered Institute of Public Finance & Accounting), ICSA (Institute of Chartered Secretaries & Administrators).| SKU | Unavailable |
