Budgeting is a key aspect of governmental behaviour. Research on
budgeting has taken various theoretical and methodological
approaches, and these differences have prevented scholars from
discussing their common topic. In this collection, we have gathered
a group of prominent scholars to explore the intermingling of
budgets and politics from an assortment of theoretical and
methodological perspectives. It highlights not only the breadth of
current research but also the range of what remains underexplored.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the
Journal of European Public Policy.

While governments prefer to alter budgets to fit their ideological
stances, the domestic and international contexts can facilitate or
constrain behavior. The Politics of Budgets demonstrates when
governments do and do not make preferred budgetary changes. It
argues for an interconnected view of budgets and explores both the
reallocation of expenditures across policy areas and the interplay
among budgetary components. While previous scholars have
investigated how politics and economics shape a single budgetary
category, or collective categories, this methodologically rich
study analyzes data for thirty-three countries across thirty-five
years to provide a more comprehensive theoretical approach: a
'holistic' framework about the competition and contexts around the
budgetary process and an of examination of how and when these
factors affect the budgetary decision-making processes.
