Summary: Chapter 1: Introduction to Budgeting in Georgia -- Chapter 2: Fiscal Conservatism and Fiscal Conservatives -- Chapter 3: Patterns and Trends in Georgia Revenue -- Chapter 4: Patterns and Trends in Georgia Spending -- Chapter 5: The Executive Budget in Georgia -- Chapter 6: The Annual Budget Process -- Chapter 7: From Line-Item to Performance Budgeting -- Chapter 8: The Line-Item Veto in Legislative-Executive Relations -- Chapter 9: Budget Priorities and Achievements of Nine Governors, 1963-2019 -- Chapter 10: Milestones and Comparative Perspective -- Index.Summary: This book describes the institutions and process through which the Georgia General Assembly adopts a budget, the executive-legislative branch politics that transpire during the process and the tax and spending policies that the process produces. It argues that the state’s budget is developed by fiscal conservatives within a culture of fiscal conservatism that is conducive to low taxes and low spending. It identifies the patterns and trends of taxing and spending over several decades and during the administrations of nine governors. Its chapter on the line-item veto illustrates the nature of executive-legislative budget relationships in the state. It concludes with an examination of the important milestones in the evolution of Georgia budgeting and a comparison of Georgia with other states on several dimensions. The book offers insights and assessments that will be of interest to budgeting scholars, students of state government, and citizens who want to know more about how government taxing and spending decisions are made. .PPN: PPN: 1769718222Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-ECF | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXEF
