This new edition restructures and updates the political economy
view of the responsibilities and limitations of government.
Public-choice and behavioural concepts are prominent. Gender issues
are included. Technical concepts are explained from first
principles. Economic theory is rigorously applied. Excessive
technicality is avoided. The book integrates traditional public
finance topics - taxation, public goods, externalities, and income
redistribution - with political self-interest, bureaucracy, voting,
rent seeking, corruption, and the common-pool problem of public
spending. Social justice is viewed as income equality, equality of
opportunity, or the right to benefit from one's own effort. Public
policies studied include the environment, education, health
insurance, welfare payments and entitlements under moral hazard,
unemployment insurance, paternalistic impositions, and defence and
public safety. This book is ideal for advanced undergraduate and
graduate courses that combine economic theory with a real-world
perspective on the politics of public finance and public policy. A
broad scope makes the book suitable for students in all countries.
