By Charles Jesse Bullock

Book Overview

Selected Readings in Public Finance is a book that was first published in 1906 by Charles Jesse Bullock, a renowned American economist and political scientist. The book is a collection of essays and articles on the subject of public finance, which is the study of how governments raise and spend money. The book is divided into four parts, each of which covers a different aspect of public finance. The first part provides an overview of the principles of taxation and the different types of taxes that governments use. The second part focuses on government spending, including the budgeting process and the different ways that governments allocate resources. The third part of the book looks at the role of government in the economy, including the regulation of markets and the provision of public goods and services. Finally, the fourth part examines the history and evolution of public finance, including the development of taxation systems and the growth of government spending over time. Throughout the book, Bullock presents a range of perspectives on public finance, drawing on the work of leading economists and political scientists from his time. The book is designed to be used as a textbook for students studying public finance or as a reference for scholars and practitioners in the field. Despite being over a century old, Selected Readings in Public Finance remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the role of government in the economy and how public finances are managed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
