Taxing the State: The Politics of Changing Taxes in the American States is a comparative analysis that explores the socioeconomic and political causes and effects of tax policy and budget spending at the state level.
The chapters analyze the level of taxation as political action undertaken by the state. Richard F. Winters makes a key contribution to the politics of taxation by examining the causes and electoral consequences of tax changes and compares the political strategies that governors employ in the face of tax changes.
This book will be of interest for students and scholars of American politics, state and local politics, comparative political economy, and public administration and policy.
Richard F. Winters taught for forty‑three years and retired as the William Clinton Story Remsen Class of ‘43 Professor Emeritus of Government at Dartmouth College. He now lives in Oakton, VA, and Williamstown, Massachusetts, where he is also a research associate with the Department of Political Science at Williams College.
