Product Description
This textbook provides a thorough treatment of all the central topics in public
economics. Aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students, it will also be
invaluable to professional economists and to those teaching in the field. The
book is entirely self-contained, giving all the equilibrium theory and welfare
economics needed to understand the analyses. The author covers the Arrow-Debreu
economy, welfare economics and the measurement of inequality and poverty which
lay the foundations and emphasise the important role played by information.
Within the competitive economy, he examines commodity taxation, income taxation
and tax reform in a certain environment. He goes on to study the public economics
of uncertainty, and then treats public goods, externalities, imperfect competition
and tax evasion as departures from the standard competitive assumptions and looks
at their implication for public economics derived.
