520 _a"Fiscal sustainability in theory and practice: a handbook represents the only comprehensive source of information on fiscal sustainability analysis. It is organized around these three themes. First, the book provides both the basic economic theory and the tools for everyday use - that is, a combination of the theoretical literature and examples of particular methods of analysis. Second, the volume describes the effects of business cycles on public finance and the role of fiscal rules. Third, the authors examine crises and their impact on fiscal sustainability. Case studies from developing countries are used to highlight these themes." - From the Book.
