Description

This well established text provides a comprehensive and sophisticated analysis of state and local government public finance practices and issues using the basic tools of economics. Throughout the book, there is a focus on the most important services provided in the state-local sector – education, health and welfare, public safety, and transportation. This fully revised new edition sees updates throughout to data, topics, and applications. The text has been brought up to date with key issues including the effects of the financial crisis on state and local governments, the Affordable Care Act and implications for Medicaid spending by state governments, and the impact of changes in population, technology and the housing market.
