5198 рубA Bond Scheme For Common Agricultural Policy Reform
Book DescriptionThe Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is not tenable and all recent reform plans ahve been condemned as unacceptable. However, a "bond scheme," as part of reform that pays more attention to society's aspirations for the environment and rural development, offers a way forward. This book demystifies the bond scheme proposal and explores concerns expressed by farmers and policy makers. Written by economists, a political scientist and a practicing politician, it offers rare insights into EU farm policy.

4988 рубA Review of Local Government Revenue Data in California
M. Shires, Melissa Glenn Haber, Melissa Glenn Haber Michael A. Shires Many policymakers and analysts throughout the state have hesitated to use the State Controller's data on local public revenues, citing three assumptions about their quality: They do not capture all public entities in the state, they do no accurately reflect the fiscal activity of those they do capture, and they are not produced in a timely manner. The authors compare the revenues reported by more than 6,500 entities in the state with the State Controllers annual report. Although they find that the data are basically sound, the authors offer a number of recommendations for increasing the timeliness, comprehensiveness, and accuracy of the information, thereby making it more useful to both the policy and research communities.

Robert W. McGee Book Description Much has been written about the economic and political problems of countries that are in the process of changing from centrally planned systems to market systems. Most studies have focused on the economic, legal, political, and sociological problems these economies have had to face during the transition period. However, not much has been written about the dramatic changes that have to be made to the accounting and financial system of a transition economy. Accounting and Financial System Reform in a Transition Economy: A Case Study of Russia was written to help fill that gap.

David T. Llewellyn Book DescriptionThe financial sector industry has undergone major changes in recent years. Technological innovation, deregulation, and liberalization are changing the context in which financial supervisors operate. Selecting the right supervisory model is an important strategic decision for a government or financial authority, and should be done in a way that fits with the institutional setting and resource capacity of the particular country. While an increasing number of countries are planning to integrate financial supervisory agencies, others have adopted a partially integrated supervisory structure, and many maintain completely separate agencies. Aligning Financial Supervisory Structures examines experiences from a variety of supervisors and policymakers from different countries to cross-fertilize ideas on issues of financial supervisory structure and to better understand why and how some countries have initiated structural changes. This timely book also identifies the pros...

John Loxley Book Description Alternative budgets are presented as a method of political mobilization that advances fiscally responsible government allocation of resources in this treatise on the enlightened alternatives to the neoconservative agenda of slashing social services. The basics of budgeting, the technical and political contexts of budgeting, and the relationship between budget legislation and fiscal constraints on governments are among the issues discussed to make the more esoteric aspects of budgeting understandable. A budget that emphasizes the needs of poor people, women, and the environment is outlined with information on how to construct alternative budgets, analyze the possibilities of government funding, and mobilize political activists to propose clear, affordable alternatives to neoliberal government cutbacks.

Helen F. Ladd, John Yinger In the past two decades powerful economic, social, and fiscal forces have buffeted America's major cities. The urbanization of poverty, the shift in employment from manufacturing to services, middle-class flight to the suburbs and Sunbelt, the tax revolt, and cuts in federal aid have made it difficult for many cities to pay for such basic services as police and fire protection, sanitation, and roads. In "America's Ailing Cities" Helen F. Ladd and John Yinger identify and measure the impact of these broad national trends. Drawing on data from 86 major cities, they offer a rigorous and innovative analysis of urban fiscal conditions. Specifically, they determine the impact of a wide range of factors that lie outside municipal control, including a city's basic economic structure and state-determined fiscal institutions, on a city's underlying fiscal health-- the difference between potential revenue and the expenditure needed to finance public services of acceptable quality. Concluding...
