Résumé : | 4e de couv : "We are currently engaged in the most fundamental debate about the role of government in decades, and who better than Jonathan Gruber to guide students through it in the new edition of his best-selling text, Public Finance and Public Policy? Now in its sixth edition, Public Finance and Public Policy remains the one textbook that truly reflects the way public policy is made. It goes beyond traditional approaches by completely integrating theory, policy applications, and evidence. By providing abundant examples of real-life policy making and by carefully explaining the empirical evidence of policy effects, this text engages readers like no other public finance text. In this new edition, Gruber has thoroughly revised chapters to focus on the most up-to-the-minute data, policy, and research available." |
