Reihe: Controversial Issues in Public Policy

This volume is a comprehensive picture of the context, problems and issues that surround US economic policy in the 90s. Whicker looks at several central topics including: the debate over the proper role of the government in economic growth; long-term economic and political cycles; deficit spending and taxation; and the implications of a globalized economy. Throughout, she emphasizes the need to continually reassess and reformulate public policy to meet changing times.
