Özet:
Public finance should be one of the most exciting and most enjoyable subject areas to study in economics. The questions of public finance are the questions discussed on the front pages of newspapers every day. The goal of this book is to bring that excitement into the classroom by mixing the strong theoretical insights of public finance with empirical evidence and policy-relevant applications that drive home the main lessons of our field. To achieve this goal, I have augmented the traditional approach of public finance texts by truly integrating theory with application and evidence. Whenever a major theoretical concept is discussed, the discussion is enhanced by examples of the policy relevance of the topic and, where available, evidence on the key relationships highlighted by the theory.
