CONSTITUTION PUBLIC FINANCE AND TRANSITION - RI...

This book explores the role of constitutions in public finance  with a special focus on
transitional context in Central and Eastern Europe. The main questions addressed are: How do
formal constitutional provisions that matter for public finance come about? How do
constitutions shape policy choices in public finance? Part l of the book puts forth an
analytical framework for analysing how fiscal constitutional provisions come about and tests
the conjectures with the case of constitution-making in Estonia in 1991-1992. Part II
summarises  synthesises and criticises the emerging orthodoxy in positive constitutional public
finance and examines whether it can explain the commitment to fiscal discipline in Estonia
between 1992 and 2007. Part III examines theoretically and empirically how constitutions can
shape public finance laws via constitutional review  auto-limitation and constitutional
deliberations.
