| Abstract
|
:
|
"Macro Federalism and Local Finance represents a unique contribution to our understanding of both the paradigm shift in local, national, and global governance and the implications of the fiscal systems for growth and regional income convergence. It will thus appeal especially to policy makers, practitioners, and academics in both industrial and developing countries."--Jacket.
