The contemporary fiscal crisis faced by the American federal
government represents the end of a fiscal regime that began with
the financing of World War II. In this volume, an
inter-disciplinary group of scholars explores the history of
American taxation and public finance since 1941 in an attempt to
understand the political, social and economic forces that have
shaped the current regime. Specifically, they examine the
historical context of earlier tax regimes and national crises;
explore the ways post-1941 governments used taxation to finance
war, social security, and economic stability; analyze the politics
of post-1941 tax reform; and apply history to a consideration of
the dynamics that are likely to characterize future tax regimes.
The contributors are convinced that understanding the long-term
development of American taxation and public finance will help
policy makers determine the possibilities and constraints that must
be taken in account in evaluating, and possibly reforming, the ways
in which the nation pays for government.
