Finance is the life blood of a government. Arrangements for finance are more tedious in a federal set up than in a unitary form of government. A federal set up creates a dual political system based on divided governmental functions and powers. Fiscal federalism deals with financial arrangements and their working in a federal policy. Imbalances between functional responsibilities and financial resources at different layers of the government are an inherent part of a federal policy. This is so because revenue-raising capacities and revenue needs of various federating units are different.. This book helps for appropriate policy formulation.
