How can governments control spending pressure from influential groups, often representing powerful regional interests? This book is concerned with institutional solutions that allow modern nation states to balance historically grown cultural, political and economic diversity. Laura von Daniels combines different literatures in economics and political science, and draws on interviews with former government leaders, and country experts from international organizations. She applies this research to topics such as fiscal institutions and budget balances, presenting a critical review of different institutional approaches to resolving fiscal imbalances and public indebtedness. Students and scholars of various disciplines, including politics, public and social policy, economics and business will find the discussions and detailed description of institutional reforms in emerging market nations to be of use to their research. It will also be of interest to practitioners working on fiscal decentralization and budget control.

Abstract: Budget formulation process is the phase where the decisions are made regarding the allocation of resources. This process should reflect the objectives of the government, which consequently should mirror the priorities of citizens. Post January 2011 Revolution, Egypt witnessed economic, social and political challenges that affected the overall government performance. Due to the intrinsic role of the State budget at political, social and economic levels, specific attention was directed to its efficiency and effectiveness. Consequently, it is normal to question its ability to achieve the stated objectives, especially with the increasing demands of transparency, accountability and social justice. This attention paves the way for introducing reform initiatives for public financial management system in Egypt. Therefore, as a step to understand the foundation of the State budget process in Egypt, this research assesses the budget formulation process in Egypt within the framework of good governance in both the executive and legislative authorities against international standards. Also this research examines the significant factors affecting the process and the extent to which the legal and political contexts in Egypt help improve budget formulation process. Hence, this study provides a roadmap for the government, containing the prerequisites for enhancing budget formulation process in Egypt. In light of these prerequisites, the government should focus on the institutional aspects that include; moving to program-based budget, adopting fiscal decentralization, merging preparation of the recurrent and investment budget under one authority and applying monitoring and evaluation system. Nevertheless, concentrating on the institutional aspects should be in line with other legal and political ones.

Traditionally, economics training in public finances has focused more on tax than public expenditure issues, and within expenditure, more on policy considerations than the more mundane matters of public expenditure management. For many years, the IMF's Public Expenditure Management Division has answered specific questions raised by fiscal economists on such missions. Based on this experience, these guidelines arose from the need to provide a general overview of the principles and practices observed in three key aspects of public expenditure management: budget preparation, budget execution, and cash planning. For each aspect of public expenditure management, the guidelines identify separately the differing practices in four groups of countries - the francophone systems, the Commonwealth systems, Latin America, and those in the transition economies. Edited by Barry H. Potter and Jack Diamond, this publication is intended for a general fiscal, or a general budget, advisor interested in the macroeconomic dimension of public expenditure management.

Budgeting is a substantial economic and political decision-making process for governments. This is because a budget is the life-blood of a government. A budget authorizes what the government intends to do and expects to do. However, many governments in developed and developing countries experience budget problems that will affect the government activities and services to its society. Thus, the negative consequences of budget problems need to be dealt with and overcome.This study is about local budget problems in a developing country. The focus on local government budgets is important as many central governments around the world, especially in developing countries, have decentralized their fiscal, political, and administrative powers to lower-level governments and amplified the importance of local budgets. However, compared to the context of developed countries, few studies have been conducted in the context of sub-national government level in developing countries in the current literature. Therefore, the objective of this study is to address this lack of literature and make contribution in this area. This study aims to explore budget problems and the causes of those budget problems suffered by three local governments in Indonesia as case studies. Indonesia is an important case study as the country has not only changed from one of the most centralized countries in the world to be one that is relatively more decentralized among developing countries. However, the process also has substantially changed the factor that influence local budget including political conditions, fiscal conditions, and budgetary institutions at the local government level as well as the role of local government.Underpinned by a constructivism-interpretivism research paradigm, this thesis conducted semi-structured interviews as the main data collection method. The data was then corroborated with document analyses to elicit the subjective meanings. Furthermore, the thesis uses multiple case studies by selecting three local governments in Indonesia, namely Blora Regency of the Central Java Province, Bengkalis Regency of the Riau Island Province, and Singkawang City of the West Kalimantan Province. Thematic analysis was employed for this thesis to uncover new emerging themes and categories in relation to the research questions. The first research question is "What budget problems are experienced by the three cases of local governments in Indonesia?" and the second research question is "What are the causes of those local budget problems?".This thesis finds that the three local governments suffered from interrelated budget problems of budget enactment delays, budget execution delays, and underspending of budget appropriations. The main budget problem was budget enactment delays which also drive budget executions delays. Budget execution delays were worsened by the procurement problems as well as some intrinsic problems related to the aspiration funds during the budget execution stage. These budget execution problems then caused underspending of budget appropriations and have led to substantial amounts of ending balances while at the same time, caused inability for these local governments to develop their infrastructure. The interrelationship of budget problems may not be a specific issue for these Indonesian local governments, but they have rarely been strongly linked in previous studies.In terms of the causes of those interrelated budget problems, the three cases show that politics play the most important role in shaping budget problems. Money politics drove disagreements among the budget actors which then caused them to face difficulty reaching agreements in the budget process. In addition, nonpolitical factors also derail the budgeting process. These include rigid and complicated budget administration, uncertainty of budget revenues, fears and worries of corruption cases, and human resource management in the civil service.By looking at budget problems in Indonesian three local governments and their causes, this study adds some information to the limited understanding of sub-national government budget problems in developing countries. It confirms that several typical budget problems such as budget delay and "underspending of budget appropriations" are suffered by sub-national governments in Indonesia. This is also the case with some of the common causes like politics. Nevertheless, some findings of this study also highlight differences between the result of studies in developed countries and developing countries. The way money politics leads to polarization among budget actors, the institutional fragmentation among the local council, the executive leader, and the bureaucracy as well as rigid budget administration are some of the examples of how the causes of budget problems in Indonesian local governments differ compared to the causes found in developed countries.

Bureaucracies have been criticized from various perspectives and blamed for a variety of failings. Critics have claimed that bureaucracies are too focused on conforming to rules rather than achieving an organization's core mission. Bureaucracies are said to oppress human freedom because of their orientation toward hierarchical control. Bureaucratic organizations are also said to be unable to deal effectively with public problems that span multiple administrative jurisdictions; they do not reach beyond their own organizational boundaries. This book provides solid data on how bureaucracies can expedite information processing and reduce organizational conflicts. Jay Eungha Ryu finds that the functions of bureaucracies are highly dependent upon external political conditions. Whether the executive and legislative branches are dominated by the same party significantly influences the ability of bureaucracies to function effectively. Ryu notes that the merits of bureaucratic centralization are worth close attention. Numerous attempts, including performance budgeting systems, have been made to improve bureaucratic malfunctions. However, such reform initiatives are doomed to failure, he argues, unless they employ a core feature of bureaucracy itself, centralization. Ryu defines bureaucratic centralization at its best as bounded bureaucracy. If well managed, bounded bureaucracy can substantially improve the rational behavior of organizations and reduce institutional frictions.
