It also looks at whether spending exceeded expectations or revenues fell short of expectations, and why, and whether planned debt reductions proceeded faster or slower than projected. The concluding chapters provide an overview of what conclusions can be drawn from the chapters in terms of lessons learned and how to have the best chance for successful fiscal adjustments"--Provided by publisher.Debts, PublicFiscal policyBudget deficitsGovernment spending policyDebts, Public.Fiscal policy.Budget deficits.Government spending policy.336.3/435BUS079000bisacshMauro Paolo1630692MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910139645203321Chipping away at public debt4187985UNINA
