"Very little research has been conducted on how parliamentary oversight is undertaken in small countries and jurisdictions or across the southern Africa region (excluding South Africa). This ground-breaking book fills that void, providing rich insights into how oversight works in these countries. Featuring an expert group of scholars and practitioners the book builds off previous research projects to offer detailed case study examinations of oversight across various global regions, including various Australian and Canadian jurisdictions, UK Crown and Overseas dependencies, Caribbean Islands, autonomous Nordic territories, Southern Africa, and several Pacific island states. Contributors present the most recent data on current developments in the world, including sub-national parliaments, drawing on primary research and first-hand experiences to offer greater theoretical and practical understanding into practices that could be adapted to improve oversight, governance, reduce corruption, and boost economic development. Enhanced Parliamentary Oversight will be an important book for practitioners, governments, and both scholars and students of legislative studies, international relations, and public administration"--

Investment in infrastructure is critical to economic growth, quality of life, poverty reduction, access to education, good quality healthcare--i.e, a dynamic economy. Yet amid scarce public capital, heavily indebted governments and increased demands on government resources, infrastructure projects often suffer from investment shortfalls and inadequate maintenance. These challenges merit renewed efforts at finding additional sources of funding. Innovative Funding and Financing for Infrastructure focuses on innovative approaches to financing as well as debt and equity from new sources and structures. It provides critical methods to increase the capital available for infrastructure, reduce fiscal liabilities and improve leverage of scare public resources. Designed for students and specialists in the fields of investment planning and finance, this book offers a survey of creative approaches from around the world, resulting in a practical guidance for policy makers and strategists on how governments can enable and encourage innovative funding and financing.

"L'histoire financière des villes de l’Ancien Régime reste mal connue. Cet ouvrage comble en partie cette lacune à partir d’une approche combinant l’examen approfondi des comptes de la ville de Lille sur un siècle et divers instruments et concepts de l’analyse économique. Parmi les dépenses urbaines, une attention particulière a été portée à l’évolution des lourds impôts royaux à la charge de la ville. Les recettes abondantes procurées par les multiples octrois concédés à la cité nordiste par les souverains successifs font l’objet d’une étude minutieuse. L’analyse économique a permis de répondre à des questions aussi essentielles que celle de savoir qui supporte le poids de l’impôt. Elle a aussi permis d’évaluer les impacts de certaines règlementations adoptées par les édiles lillois. Un diagnostic précis de la santé financière de la ville de Lille à la veille de la Révolution a été établi grâce à l’utilisation d’indicateurs standards de l’analyse financière des collectivités locales."
