Throughout the text, readers are presented with relevant state- specific mini cases, which highlight some of the difficulties in projecting future revenue and spending patterns, as well as the political conflict that can ensue. The empirical findings, mini cases, and arguments presented throughout this book are intended to empower readers, giving them the expertise needed to better understand how uncertainty in public budget forecasts affects the budget process. Ultimately, this knowledge can help citizens connect the financial management of a state with its governing patterns."--Back cover. 590 Rider Faculty Publications 650 0 Budget|zUnited States|xStates|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85017605|xForecasting.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00005779 650 7 Budget.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/840336 650 7 Forecasting.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/931721 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 901 MARCIVE 20231220 948 |d20160930|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bRID
