This book provides a first comprehensive analysis of how political decision makers and their individual backgrounds affect fiscal policy. The empirical examination employs three new and unique data sets. The data sets combine information on fiscal policy of German municipalities, German states, and EU countries with the biographies of the respective political decision makers. The author investigates how the politicians individual qualification (e.g., educational and professional background) and their preferences (e.g., party affiliation) affect fiscal performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 167\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 8.9 x 5.8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 31, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47208508752121,"sku":"9783848708147","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/n8F1WybGHg9783848708147.webp?v=1768054272","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/political-decision-makers-and-their-relevance-for-public-finances-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
