This book provides a long-term perspective on policies regarding
intergovernmental grants in the US since the 1970s. This period
spans six presidential administrations and encompasses a diverse
set of political and economic conditions. Containing original
research, this book contributes to critical assessments of
intergovernmental grant issues such as: whether state and local
government spending responds symmetrically to increases or
decreases in federal aid the effects of converting categorical
grants to block grants on program spending; and the political
economy of federal aid distribution. >The author's empirical
analyses are based on a unique data set of US federal
intergovernmental grants and cover a range of programs, including
transportation, substance abuse prevention and treatment, and
community development and welfare. The book is a rich source of
material on intergovernmental grants and fiscal relations for
scholars and practitioners in public policy, political science,
economics and public finance.
