Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This volume provides a comprehensive discussion of the problems, limitations of approaches and solutions for controlling rising public expenditures.
MoreLong description:
A persistent problem faced by governments in developing and industrial countries, both at central and sub-national levels, relates to the control of burgeoning public expenditures. In recognition of this problem, governments have made several efforts to reform the operational systems of planning and control of their expenditures. These efforts, which reached a critical stage during the nineties, have not, by and large, been successful. Thus expenditure management systems are in the
throes of a serious crisis and in the absence of immediate efforts to address the contributing factors, the situation is bound to deteriorate further.
In this book, the author examines the factors contributing to expenditure increases and the reasons for the less-than-successful endeavours of governments in controlling these. As the factors contributing to the on-going crisis are different and require specific strategies, each chapter is self-contained and provides abundant material to formulate policy pa ckages that can lead to strengthen expenditure management system. The volume discusses the ethos and ethics of expenditure management and
lays out a clear and pragmatic approach to the problem.
