The chapters analyze the level of taxation as political action undertaken by the state. Richard F. Winters makes a key contribution to the politics of taxation by examining the causes and electoral consequences of tax changes and compares the political strategies that governors employ in the face of tax changes.
This book will be of interest for students and scholars of American politics, state and local politics, comparative political economy, and public administration and policy.
