{"product_id":"government-budgeting-and-expenditure-management","title":"Government Budgeting and Expenditure Management","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe government budget should be the financial mirror of society's choices. Yet most people view budgeting as the epitome of eye-glazing subjects, rarely explained in a way that is understandable to the non-specialist and too often presented without adequate consideration of a country’s governance and institutional capacity. \u003cem\u003eGovernment Budgeting and Expenditure Management\u003c\/em\u003e fills a gap in the literature to redress these failings and does so in comparative international perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book provides a comprehensive but pithy and easy-to-understand treatment of public financial management, taking into account a variety of special issues including budgeting in post-conflict situations, at subnational government levels, for military\/security expenditures, and in countries with large extractive revenues. Distilling the lessons of budgeting reform in countries at different levels of income and administrative capacity, each chapter gradually progresses from the basic principles to the more technical aspects and then on to implementation issues, using concrete examples and illustrations from around the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGovernment Budgeting and Expenditure Management\u003c\/em\u003e is ideally suited as the primary text for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in government budgeting or public financial management, or as a supplementary text for courses in public finance, public economics, economic development, public administration or comparative politics. With its attention to practical implementation aspects, the book will also be of direct interest to practitioners, policy-makers, and government employee training organizations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54243775119704,"sku":"9781138183407","price":248.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138183407_81c8421a-e325-4115-8e3b-651e04e012fa.jpg?v=1777707937","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/government-budgeting-and-expenditure-management","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
